First Flutter App - Minutes

Visakh Vijayan - Aug 21 '20 - - Dev Community

Flutter is one of the best things that happened to me this year given the fact that we are all undergoing this pandemic season.

It has been a long while since I have been trying to learn Android. I have gone as far as buying a Udemy course on Android and looking up Macbook prices for iOS coding. None of that worked though.

So being a JS developer, Flutter was just what I was looking for. The concepts, the way code is structured are very easy to pick up and if you have a bit of exposure to React, you will feel right at home.

With concepts like render == build, setState == setState, route == Navigation.push, componentWillUpdate == initState and much more similarities it's a breeze for a react dev. So please take time off and learn this amazing tech.

It's been 3 weeks and this is the first app on the playstore. GO ahead and check it out guys. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.souparnika.newsapp

Looking forward to more amazing apps. Oh and if you are worried about community pub.dev and stackoverflow are the only things you will ever need.

Happy coding!
