To log data to the Flutter console, you can use the print() function or the debugPrint() method for more control.
The print() function outputs messages to the console.
print("Hello, Flutter!");
debugPrint() is useful for logging large data without being truncated.
debugPrint("This is a debug message.");
The log() method from the dart:developer library is used to log messages to the console. This is especially useful when you need structured logging with additional metadata like a name or stack trace.
import 'dart:developer'; void main() { String message = "This is a log message"; log(message, name: 'MyApp'); }
try { throw Exception("Sample error"); } catch (e, stackTrace) { log("An error occurred", name: "ErrorLogger", error: e, stackTrace: stackTrace); }
Unlike print(), the log() method integrates well with developer tools, providing more context and better debugging information.
