Thanks for this!

From early this year I've been trying to get into web development but I have to admit it's been really unfulfilling. Before that I was coding mostly in C# and C++.

Recently I took a stab at Dart and I've had more fun than I've ever had while using Javascript, so I decided to ditch the web and focus on Flutter for now. This series looks like it'll be helpful to me.

Thanks again!

I'm curious why do you find it unfulfilling? Is it because the landscape is so fragmented and without clear guidelines? If so, I can relate to that.

Thanks for the kind words. With the series I've been trying to fill the gap with the existing tutorials as they usually do not focus on the architecture that much.

Yeah exactly that, I constantly felt lost when trying to learn, and even after completing a course I'd feel like I'd accomplished little. Whenever I finished a project I'd just be relieved that I wasn't working on it anymore haha.

App development is what lured me into programming so I decided I'd get back to it. I did web development because I thought it had a more secure future than mobile, kinda still do to be honest, but in the end I didn't like it much. I'd rather do something that doesn't make me want to pull my hair out.

Your videos are amazing by the way, I've done 5 from the playlist and it was an enjoyable learning experience :)

I agree with Samuel Odundo ... I share the same perspective and Dart is really good, though I am stuck with Javascript as very early on in my development learning phase I had started with Javascript.

Its been a while since I posted this comment. Since then I've learnt Dart and I'm much better at it. And to make things better, I can still do web development with Dart (AngularDart to be exact). I do not regret the choice I made to ditch Javascript. I've still gotten some freelancing jobs that require a little js but in general I've been able to choose my own stack and I choose Dart always.

I am in process of learning Dart too ... and loving it, primarily plan to use it for Flutter. I am not so confident of Dart for web development though, IMHO I think React for front end is a very good choice compared to Angular.

Whats your opinion?

Can you make a video on how to create flutter plugins? I’ve ran into a scenario where you can’t play music in flutter on iOS 13 so I had to create a flutter plugin for that. The 3rd party plugins don’t seem very good for this....

Yes, I've already started something in that vein. Is it just about the plugin creation itself or you are rather interested how to interface with the underlying phone APIs ?

Hello,

I'm just getting started with flutter and I found this tutorial series very helpful so I just wanted to thank you for taking your time to make this wonderful tutorial series. The only thing that bugs me is your theme choice for Visual Studio Code 🤣

Great lessons indeed! This will surely help learn the basics of flutter and dart programming. Easy to understand. I highly appreciate the video tutorials. Learned a lot from this. To dive into the real-world apps we can check some amazing flutter templates out there in the market which can be your next app or inspiration to develop the next application

@zaiste I'm coming way after your publication and look for the best way to learn Flutter as a senior developer who did native Android in the past.
Is there a formation you would recommend? Paid training is totally ok

Thanks for these. Dart looks a beautiful language, which on top of great almost native apps, it yields great programming practices which can be applied to many other languages like Java, C# and other OOP flowers :D

You want to develop an iOS compatible app, did it get that right ? If so, yes there may be some rough edges e.g. lack of the proper debugging. If you stick with the Material there shouldn't be any issues to my knowledge.

Flutter is a trending technology this year. This article will suggest some free and paid ways to learn how to develop iOS and Android applications with Flutter.

Are you interested in mobile application development?
If your answer is yes, you are reading the right article! Maybe you don't know about Flutter yet, but don't worry – I wrote an article about what flutter is and why you should learn it this year.
