Flutter & Firebase: Build a Complete App for iOS & Android

IMPORTANT NOTE: Following extensive changes to the Firebase plugins in August 2020, part of this course is outdated. All the course content will be updated in December 2020. For now, you can still follow the course using older versions of the Firebase plugins (more detailed instructions inside).

Want to learn how to build native mobile apps with Flutter?

Then you are in the right place. 

Flutter is a mobile framework by Google for building beautiful and fast native apps. Flutter is very productive and offers a rich set of widgets that makes building apps a breeze. Once you experience hot-reload and everything else Flutter has to offer, you will never want to go back.

In this course you will build a complete, real-world application for iOS and Android, by using Dart, Flutter and Firebase.

This course starts from the basics, and includes a full introduction to Dart and Flutter. This means that NO prior experience with Dart and mobile app development is needed.

As you make progress, the course will introduce more advanced topics, with special emphasis on writing production-ready code, so that you can learn how to build robust applications that scale.

And by learning Firebase as well, you will understand how to make modern reactive apps, and see why Flutter and Firebase are a great combination.

Important concepts are explained with clear diagrams. You will always learn what you will be building and why, and then how to do it.

This will give you a strong foundation, and the techniques you learn here will be valuable in your own Flutter apps.

So by the end of this course you will be a competent Flutter developer.
