Summary

What changed?

Will this affect my application?

3 high-impact items. Start with: Navigator's page APIs breaking change; Generic types in PopScope; New APIs for Android plugins that render to a Surface.

What action should I take?

Read the 4 official migration guides first, apply `dart fix` where available, then upgrade and run your test suite. Deprecations can be scheduled; removals cannot.

How do I migrate safely?

Prefer stepping through stable series sequentially; each breaking-change page has a checklist, before/after code and the official guide. Verify with `flutter analyze`, `flutter test` and a profile-mode run on each target platform.

New APIs for Android plugins that render to a Surface

The Android embedder for Flutter introduces a new API, `SurfaceProducer`, which allows plugins to render to a `Surface` without needing to manage what the backing implementation is. Plugins using the older `createSurfaceTexture` API will continue to work with Impeller after the _next_ stable release, but are recommended to migrate to the new API.
