Book Description

An open-source mobile framework for building native mobile apps using the Dart language, Flutter consolidates the best ideas emerging from native and web development. With this recipe-based guide focused on sound app design and core principles, you’ll learn how to solve cross-platform mobile development issues in a practical way. Unlike most other books on Flutter, the Flutter Cookbook covers error handling and debugging to ensure that your apps run more efficiently.

You’ll start by setting up Flutter and customizing your development environment. The book will explain the various tasks involved in app development such as UI/UX design, API design, and creating animations. You’ll then explore Dart programming for adding functionalities to your Android and iOS apps for truly native performance. You’ll get to grips with routing for managing your application codebase as you learn about the navigation and routing mechanism and material page routing for running your application. Throughout the book, you’ll find recipes for solving challenges in building a cross-platform application along with various aspects of running a single codebase on both Android and iOS mobile platforms.

By the end of this Flutter book, you’ll have learned everything you need to be able to write and deliver fully functional mobile apps.
