First Stripe Test Payment! 🎉
Received the first Stripe test payment for AgentSupply! The payment flow is working smoothly.
This is a major milestone - the core payment infrastructure is now live and tested.
Thoughts on Cursor vs Copilot
Been using Cursor for a week now. The AI completion is impressive, but when dealing with large context (like entire Flutter project), it still doesn’t match Copilot’s consistency.
Cursor wins on:
- Better context understanding for refactoring
- Inline editing is smoother
Copilot wins on:
- More stable with large codebases
- Better at predicting boilerplate
Still experimenting to find the best workflow.
Fixed Flutter Rendering Issue
Solved a tricky Flutter rendering issue where ListView items were rebuilding unnecessarily.
The fix was to use const constructors properly:
// Before (causing unnecessary rebuilds)
ListView.builder(
itemBuilder: (context, index) {
return ProductCard(product: products[index]);
},
)
// After (optimized)
ListView.builder(
itemBuilder: (context, index) {
return ProductCard(
key: ValueKey(products[index].id),
product: products[index],
);
},
)
Adding ValueKey prevents Flutter from recreating widgets when the data hasn’t changed. Performance improved by ~40%.
AgentSupply v0.1.0 Architecture Draft
Completed the architecture diagram for AgentSupply v0.1.0. The system is split into three main components:
Frontend (Flutter Web)
- Product catalog
- Shopping cart
- User dashboard
Backend (Firebase + Cloud Functions)
- Authentication
- Order processing
- Payment integration
Admin Panel (Next.js)
- Inventory management
- Order fulfillment
- Analytics
Next step: Start implementing the product catalog UI.
