Local development for Parse's Cloud Code Functions with Docker Compose

I develop a mobile application which uses Parse Platform on the backend side to store and sync data. I needed to write some custom code using Parse's Cloud Code functions and I wanted an easy local development setup for that. The result is a docker-compose config which I share in this post.

Flutter flavors and ios schemes

In my latest flutter project I needed to create different versions of my app for the different development environments. A development version which uses the development backend, a staging version which uses the staging backend and, you guessed right, a production version which uses the production servers. In Android those versions are called flavors and in iOS this can be done with schemes. But how can this be achieved within flutter? There are a few blog posts online showing how to do it. For android those tutorials worked great but for iOS in everyone of them a litte piece of information was missing and I had to play arround quite some time before I got it right. Therefore follows my step-for-step guide for configuring flavors in flutter for iOS.
