How to use #
There is a class TelegramWebApp which contains all the telegram web apis. You can call the methods via TelegramWebApp.instance
You can also mock TelegramWebApp by extending it if you are trying to test outside telegram platform. Alternatively, TelegramWebAppFake object can also be used for the same purpose.
Example
// current telegram version
Text(TelegramWebApp.instance.version)

// telegram colors associated with the user's app
Text(TelegramWebApp.instance.themeParams)

// Object containing user details and user validation hash
Text(TelegramWebApp.instance.initData.toString())

You can find full list of api examples in example folder. Please feel free to contribute for improvements and any updates.
Note

All the apis are only available inside telegram web app. You can't use the apis outside the platform.

In Android, Web App is sometimes not loading (only grey/white screen showing up). If this happens to you, there is a 'hacky' workaround. You can also find it in example app:

void main() async {
try {
if (TelegramWebApp.instance.isSupported) {
await TelegramWebApp.instance.ready();
Future.delayed(const Duration(seconds: 1), TelegramWebApp.instance.expand);
}
} catch (e) {
print("Error happened in Flutter while loading Telegram $e");
// add delay for 'Telegram seldom not loading' bug
await Future.delayed(const Duration(milliseconds: 200));
main();
return;
}

FlutterError.onError = (details) {
print("Flutter error happened: $details");
};

runApp(const MyApp());
}
