Problems to compile

By default, this buildpack get the last version of Flutter automatically, sometimes because is on beta channel, that version may have problems to compile a project with web support in cloud services.

  • CLEANUP to remove uneccessary files after the build.
  • CACHE to remove and download every file its need to compile the project in every deploy.
