Features

• Unused Class Detection: Automatically detects BLoC event classes that aren't used in the related BLoC and highlights them for review.
• Fix Suggestions: Provides actionable suggestions for handling unused events.
• Code Quality Insights: Helps maintain clean code by flagging unnecessary classes, improving code readability and reducing project clutter.
