Flutter firebase trigger email implementation

I've been trying to create a contact form for my flutter project. The contact form is composed of two steps. First, the user provides their email and then describes their issue. Once the user presses submit, I want to receive an email on my end. I've look at several packages like mailer and flutter_email_sender. However, they don't seem to offer good solutions; mailer requires that I provide the password to my email address in my code (opening up the possibility for vulnerabilities). Flutter_email_sender simply opens up an email app on the phone.

Recently I've come across the perfect solution, Firebase's new extension Trigger Email. Although the extension seems promising, I can't find any resources outlining proper implementation of Trigger Email in Flutter.

Can you please provide an example of how Trigger Email can be implemented in Flutter project?

From the documentation of the extension:

Use this extension to render and send emails that contain the information from documents added to a specified Cloud Firestore collection.

So to send an email you write a document to Cloud Firestore. For examples of writing to Cloud Firestore from Flutter, see the FlutterFire documentation for examples of this.
