# Chrome OS Best Practices
A Flutter sample app that builds upon the Friendlychat codelab to show how to build a responsive app that works well on Chrome OS
## Goals for this sample
* Showcase how to build an app that works well on Chrome OS including:
* Changing layouts on screen size and handling resizing well
* Keyboard navigation support (coming soon!)
* Deeper mouse/trackpad support: Right click support etc... (coming soon!)
## The important bits
### `main.dart`
As of now, the main thing to look at is the main build method where we use layout builder to determine which layouts to build
```
body: LayoutBuilder(
builder: (context, constraints) {
final double width = constraints.maxWidth;
debugPrint('width: $width');
if (constraints.maxWidth > 800)
return TwoPaneChatLayout(chatEntries: chats);
else
return ChatListScreen(chatEntries: chats);
},
),
```
