Why it matters

A desktop interface needs more than a content canvas. Toolbar controls, search, sidebars and inspectors need to work together within the window.

Fieldnotes example: photo grid between a library sidebar and information inspector, beneath a native macOS toolbar — Fieldnotes, the macOS Liquid Glass UI example. Native toolbar, sidebar and inspector with example photographs. Photography credits.

Compose a complete macOS window

Use native toolbar and search controls around Flutter content, with coordinated sidebar and inspector panes.

Use materials with platform fallbacks

Use Liquid Glass where the operating system supports it, with older-system and opaque fallbacks. Test the relevant operating system and accessibility settings for your application.
