Original repo restoredgetx_community closing
GetX is back.
5 days ago, the official GetX repository disappeared from GitHub — the most liked package on pub.dev, used by thousands of Flutter teams in production.
Within hours, I published getx_community on pub.dev as a temporary drop-in replacement so teams would not be left stranded.
The results in under a week:
- 14 likes, 150 points, 186 downloads on pub.dev
- 3,000+ profile visits
- 15 projects adopted it as a dependency
- Multiple teams said it saved them from a blocked sprint
The good news: the original repository by jonataslaw is now back on GitHub.
Since the original is restored, I will be closing getx_community. It served its purpose. Switching back is a one-liner:
find . -name '*.dart' -exec sed -i 's|package:getx_community/|package:get/|g' {} +In pubspec.yaml, swap getx_community back to get: ^4.x and run flutter pub get.
Open source is not just about writing code. It is about showing up when the community needs it.
