Pro+

Warns when a variable is declared with an explicit type that can be omitted.

Example​

❌ Bad:

class SomeClass {
  static const String val = '123'; // LINT

  final Map<String, String> initedWithType = <String, String>{}; // LINT

  final Set<String> elements = {}; // LINT

  final (String,) record = ('hello',); // LINT

  late final (String,) lazyRecord;
}

✅ Good:

class SomeClass {
  static const val = '123';

  final initedWithType = <String, String>{};

  final elements = <String>{};

  final record = ('hello',);

  late final (String,) lazyRecord;
}
