Describe the problem

Hi..

Thank you so much for everything.. BUT, this part of the documentation is too short. I have a lot of work to achieve, and I can't find anything regarding the background process topic..

I've been waiting for your update on that topic for years now..

Please expand on the usage here. How can I run Flutter code from the background..? How can I communicate with channels, etc..?

My most common scenario is getting a background message from Firebase message, and the need to save something in shared_preferences, or turn on the flashlight or any other communication with another flutter package.

Thank you, Tal

Re-opening this one because it's much fresher than the old issue and it has some very specific asks in it.
