Also, the cookies are saved automatically in the document.cookie just like they would if you were writing regular JS.
Unless they're httpOnly: in that case the frontend can never access them so they can be accessed only by the backend when you send a request.

I've noticed that. Google's HTTP library seems to not retain cookies sometimes. Switching to the dio http library should fix it in my experience, and Dio's API is very close to Google's. I'm sorry for the late response but I've not been loggin in to dev.to often lately.
Thank you for taking the time to respond @carminezacc
! What ended up working for me was setting the withCredentials parameter for the BrowserClient to true (it is defaulted to false). After that, my browser did all the cookie management! github.com/dart-lang/http/blob/20e...

i can understand that but somehow its weird that the response header doesnt show the cookie after login.
hi carmine. it seems that the problem is req.cookies returns null in the backend when flutter web sends a request to the backend.
also set httpOnly to false so i could see document.cookie contents but nothing is saved to the browser. weird.
I am also having the same issue. I can see the Set-Cookie header in the login response but the cookie is not actually being set
