Why breaking up a single sentence in localizations?

[BrutalCoding]

Bug

This is one of the text issues that I noticed and wanted to solve:

As seen in the image, I have added the markers 1 and 2 to highlight the problem I'm describing below.

Problem

This single sentence is for no good reason broken up in 2 sentences. Is there a particular reason for this? These translations are only used on the page seen in my screenshot, so it's not being re-used anywhere else.

{
    "thisWillOnlyCloneFlutterAndNotInstall": "This will only clone Flutter and not install it ",
    "dependenciesAfterANewVersionIsInstalled": "Dependencies after a new version is installed.",
}

File location: localizations/en-US/modules.json

Solutions

There are quite a bit of translation files, and I don't have the time to go through them yet.

Merge into single sentence

But I'd propose to merge this into a single sentence.

For example:

{
    "onlyFlutterCloneAndNotTheDependencies": "This will only clone Flutter and not install it's dependencies after a new version is installed.",
}

Reason on why not to recase it in Dart

We shouldn't try to change the casing, although it will be perfectly fine in English, its not a guaranteed solution in other languages.

I'm talking about adjusting the following Dart code found in fvm_settings.scene.dart:

Original:

Text(
  context.i18n(
          'modules:settings.scenes.thisWillOnlyCloneFlutterAndNotInstall') +
      context.i18n(
          'modules:settings.scenes.dependenciesAfterANewVersionIsInstalled'),
)

Sentence case:

Text(
  (context.i18n(
          'modules:settings.scenes.thisWillOnlyCloneFlutterAndNotInstall') +
      context.i18n(
          'modules:settings.scenes.dependenciesAfterANewVersionIsInstalled')).toSentenceCase(),
)

• toSentenceCase() does not exist out of the box with Flutter, but we could easily add this by writing a String extension somewhere and importing it here.

This was discussed in https://github.com/fluttertools/sidekick/pull/95#pullrequestreview-686323545 and supposedly fixed. In this specific example, the strings should be separate lines in any case, as the sentence is not gramatically correct.

I'm closing this issue since it's been stale. I mainly opened this issue just to bring awareness. Thanks for your swift reply @aguilaair.
