Thanks for your Work. I do get 4 Errors.

I have the initState in my main.dart and the rest imported from another File.

The first two are at the initState. At versionCheck(context) i get at the context "Undefined name 'context'." and at the super.initState i get I"nvalid context for 'super' invocation".

At the leftover Code i get at the FlatButton for _launchURL(Config.APP_STORE_URL) and at the _launchURL(Config.PLAY_STORE_URL) the error at Config. At both i get following Error: "Undefined name 'Config'.
Try correcting the name to one that is defined, or defining the name."

I would be blessed if you can help me.

I wish you a healty start in the new Year.

instead of config.appstore url, copy your app store URL as a string "http://play.google.....etc"
then
onPressed function calls ==> _launchURL("http://play.google.....etc")

@tmldoc I have done for Android and iOS like this

 FlatButton(
                                  child: Text(btnLabel),
                                  onPressed: () => _launchURL(
                                      APP_STORE_URL),
                                ),

And for the URL i created a String.

If i create a class called Config, add there all of the Firebase Remote Config and add then Config infront of the URL is this working?
