Adding Linux Support #37

Open behzodfaiziev opened 1 month ago

behzodfaiziev commented 1 month ago

Feature

The flutter_timezone package currently offers timezone functionality for iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, and web platforms. However, it does not yet support Linux, which limits its usefulness for developers building cross-platform applications that include Linux as a target.

Adding Linux support would enable consistent timezone features across all major platforms, including desktop environments, and would enhance the package’s versatility and adoption within the Flutter community.

I kindly request the addition of Linux support, or any guidance on how this could be implemented. Your efforts to expand the platform compatibility of this package would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I still consider Linux my primary OS and I'd love to support it, but the sad fact is that I've been forced onto Apple hardware since I started developing Flutter apps. Today I don't have access to a machine where it's not a huge pain to set up Linux, even in a VM :/

That said, if anyone wanted to contribute support, I would be very happy.
