Description

This comprehensive course is designed to take you from a complete novice to a confident Flutter developer, capable of building full-stack apps using clean code techniques.I believe in laying strong foundations for learning. That's why I start by teaching you Dart, Flutter's programming language, independently, without using Flutter at all. By mastering Dart first, you'll gain a solid understanding of its syntax, concepts, and principles, setting you up for success throughout the rest of the course.Once you've mastered Dart, we dive headfirst into the world of Flutter. Throughout the course, we'll cover various aspects of Flutter, such as widgets, layouts, responsive layouts, state management using both - Provider and Riverpod and much more. Navigation is a crucial aspect of any app. I leave no stone unturned to explore Navigator 1.0 and Navigator 2.0, helping you understand the best practices for smooth navigation within your apps. Flutter is an incredibly powerful framework, and I want you to harness its full potential. That's why I also provide you with a brief overview of the inner workings of Flutter, including how it handles rendering, state management, and other "behind-the-scenes" magic. This knowledge will set you apart as a truly proficient Flutter developer.Learning by doing is the best way to master any skill. Thus, in this course you'll build several exciting app projects like Currency Converter, Realtime Weather Forecast, Shopping App, Responsive Google Search Clone, Voice Assistant App powered by ChatGPT and Dall-E and a Full Stack Reddit Clone using Firebase backend (Know more about each of the apps we build in the free video previews)!The approach to teaching goes beyond just giving you ready-made solutions. I firmly believe in empowering you to learn by teaching you various aspects of Flutter, such as Animations and Automated Testing, independently of each other. This will enable you to understand the underlying principles and apply your knowledge creatively in various scenarios, not just in building the apps we build.I understand that learning a new language and a new framework like Flutter can be challenging, even for experienced developers. But don't worry about it! This is a zero-to-hero Flutter course, meaning we start from scratch and take you on an incredible journey to become a confident Flutter developer. You'll go from knowing nothing about Dart, Flutter (or even programming) to becoming proficient in developing clean, efficient and powerful apps. So, if you're read to empower yourself with valuable skills that will open doors to countless opportunities in the world of app development, enrol now and let's begin this thrilling adventure together!
