Search for Hardcoded String in Flutter

Question

How could I get all hardcoded string in Flutter?

In Android I can get it by Lint Inspection but is there any similar to that in Flutter?

I opened an issue on Flutter Repo: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/42227

If you're on IntelliJ, you can find all text matching a hardcoded String regex.

1. Press Cmd + Shift + F (or Ctrl + Shift + F)
2. Enable regex search
3. Search for "(.*?)" or '(.*?)' depending on whether you use double-quotes or single-quotes for hardcoded strings. For both, use "(.*?)"|'(.*?)'
4. Step 3 would only show a maximum of 100 results
5. Press "Open in Find Window"

This should open a new Find window from the bottom with all results (3,144 in my case):

You can then expand the results directory and preview any hardcoded string in any file from the results:
