Flutter 3.38+: “Unable to load asset: AssetManifest.json”

[HyeonKayh]

I am getting the following error on Flutter 3.38+:

Unhandled Exception: Unable to load asset: "AssetManifest.json".

It appears to be caused by this code, which always tries to load the JSON manifest:

bundle.loadString('AssetManifest.json');

According to the Flutter documentation, AssetManifest.json is planned for removal and will no longer be generated in future releases (starting from the fourth stable release after Flutter 3.19).
