Description:

The docs are not rendering perfectly on a mobile device.

I am not sure if this is the right repo to report it actually

Have you tried https://master-docs-flutter-io.firebaseapp.com/ ? I fixed several critical mobile-blocking bugs since the last stable release, hopefully the next release will improve matters.

https://master-docs-flutter-io.firebaseapp.com/ has the same error

I was able to reproduce this in simulator and with a real device.

This seems to be some artifact of how dartdoc is doing scrolling. If you attempt to swipe the entire page to the left in a particular way, the doc page can get stuck there. Worse, the stickiness seems to be persistent and reloads of the page don't seem to help.

A workaround is to manually swipe the page back to the right, but that only works on https://master-docs-flutter-io.firebaseapp.com/. docs.flutter.io is stuck for good when this happens.

I also found the same issue at the Dart Pub https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/flutter_google_places_autocomplete

Yes. I believe all dartdoc generated documentation will do this on mobile.
