Yeah you have to make it compliant with null safety:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

  final String title;
  final String author;

  Book(this.title, this.author);

  @override

}

  final BookRouteInformationParser _routeInformationParser =
  BookRouteInformationParser();

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp.router(
      title: 'Books App',
      routerDelegate: _routerDelegate,
      routeInformationParser: _routeInformationParser,

  }
}

class BookRouteInformationParser extends RouteInformationParser<BookRoutePath> {

    if (uri.pathSegments.length >= 2) {
      var remaining = uri.pathSegments[1];
      return BookRoutePath.details(int.tryParse(remaining));
    } else {

Hello, even though this thread is quite old, I hope that someone will help me with some questions / issues.

I am very happy that example is simple, however I see some issues with it mostly related to WEB implementation. I am trying to polish it to the level it behaves as consistent with native browser navigation as possible.

Example's main issue is with browser history: every time user presses back arrow it returns it to home screen, but instead of moving back in history, it just pushes new entry, so history is constantly growing (I belive that "back arrow" button executes Navigator.of(context).pop() under the hood). Is that possible to make navigator's pop behavior the same as of browser's back button? I have solution for that:

html.window.history.go(-1);

but I am not sure it is the best one.

Second question is about page title (what we can see in tab and what we can see in browser history, like Application: Home for home or Application: Book Title for book details page).
I tried using Title widget, but I am not sure where I should put it in our example to make it work.

thanks a lot and looking forward some response from you.
