Same shape as docs/v3/: Goal/Context/Design/Implementation/Acceptance/Tests/Risks/Out-of-scope, written before implementing. UI-01: persistent 4-tab shell (StatefulShellRoute) replacing the current push/pop stack rooted at Record, with a single shared background map dimmed behind every tab and no header anywhere. UI-02: animated skeleton map for the no-cache/no-network case, since the map is now a permanent background presence rather than opt-in per screen. UI-03: shared GlassPanel/FloatingPill/PulsingLocationMarker component kit. UI-04: draggable, resizable HUD telemetry widgets with a Settings visibility toggle -- split out from the screen redesign itself since it's a genuinely separate piece of engineering (a small widget-layout system, not a reskin). UI-05: Map HUD/Record screen redesign -- the design north star every other screen ticket restyles toward. UI-06: Plan & Route Planning -- correct in principle, explicitly restyled toward UI-05 rather than copying the Stitch export's drifted styling. UI-07: Rides History -- live dimmed map background (not the mockup's static image), search/filter, real per-ride map thumbnails, and real distinct summary stats (fixing the export's 4-identical-cards generation artifact). UI-08: theme migration to Modern Professional Dark, superseding V3-16's safety-orange direction. README documents the dependency order, and two categories worth keeping separate: what was named explicitly by the person commissioning this (map-on-every-tab, no header, offline skeleton, customizable HUD) versus what the mockups themselves got inconsistent (nav icon count, duplicate summary cards, wrong active-tab highlight) and should not be copied as intentional.
Rippr
A GPS ride recorder for motorcycles, on Android and iOS. Records telemetry into a local SQLite database, renders the traversed path on a map afterwards, and exports to GPX/GeoJSON.
Built for one specific use: hit start, put the phone in a pocket, ride, hit stop. Most of the design follows from that.
This is a Flutter port of the native Android app in ~/dojo/rippr (v1 → v2.0.1). The port
is feature-complete; see docs/port/PARITY-AUDIT.md for
exactly what is verified and what is not.
Flutter 3.47 · Dart 3.13 Android minSdk 26 · iOS 12+
~4,600 lines Dart 175 tests (171 unit/widget, 4 integration)
Status
| Feature | Status |
|---|---|
| GPS recording, foreground on Android / background mode on iOS | Implemented; not yet ridden |
| Trips with pause / resume / stop / discard | Working, 50 tests |
| Live speed + elapsed clock | Working |
| Path on OpenStreetMap, per-segment, speed-coloured | Working; colouring unverifiable without a real ride |
| Ride statistics + charts | Working; bit-identical to the Kotlin original |
| Rename / delete / merge rides | Working |
| GPX + GeoJSON export | Working; byte-identical to the Kotlin original |
| Upload to a REST endpoint | Implemented, no UI (as in the native app) |
| Notification actions (Pause/Resume in the shade) | Absent — the one capability lost |
| Live map while recording · group ride | Deferred to v3 |
The port has never recorded a real ride. No simulator produces velocity, so max speed, moving time, speed colouring, elevation against real GPS error, battery, and iOS stationary suspension are all unverified. That is docs/port/REAL-RIDE-CHECKLIST.md, and it is the next thing that should happen.
Quick start
Requires JDK 17–21 for Android (AGP rejects 25) and Xcode for iOS.
flutter pub get
dart run build_runner build # Drift codegen
flutter analyze && flutter test
flutter test integration_test -d <device-id>
flutter run
Watch the disk. A full dual-platform build cycle costs roughly 10 GB, and the Android
emulator needs 7.4 GB free just to boot. Run flutter clean before booting it.
Cross-language parity
The strongest guarantee in this repo. It compiles the real Kotlin sources from the native app and diffs them against the Dart port across twenty fixtures:
brew install kotlin
JAVA_HOME=<jdk-21> ./tool/parity/run.sh
Everything matches to the last digit — including the elevation accumulator at
38.959594555022136 and byte-identical GPX/GeoJSON. The single expected difference is
speed-derived values, where Kotlin's 32-bit Float widens with artefacts Dart's uniform
double does not reproduce.

Two bugs this port found in the native app
Crash recovery measured the dead time as distance. restoreAfterProcessDeath says it
resumes into a new segment; it actually adopts the segment a crash left open, so the
authoritative recomputation measures straight through the gap. Reproduced at 111 km of
phantom distance. Fixed here.
The elevation regression guard passes on seed luck. On a shared fixture the algorithm
yields ~39 m, which would fail the native test's own 35 m bound. It passes only because
kotlin.random.Random(42) happens to draw a benign sequence.
Before shipping
- Switch the application id from
com.rippr.portback tocom.rippr. The suffix exists so the native app can be installed alongside during the port — keep it until the real ride comparison is done. - Replace the default Flutter app icon; the native artwork is in
~/dojo/rippr/design/. - Build and test a release build. Everything so far has been debug.
