Ensure you know Flutter Riverpod and go router basics, including pubspec.yaml. Build a WebSocket app that connects to Coinbase, streams coin prices every second, lists coins, and handles errors.
Install vscode and set up flutter development with extensions like Blockman, code i, dot, dot data class generator, flutter pod snippets, and error lens, plus material theme and material icon.
Set up a new Flutter project, configure pubspec dependencies for Riverpod, freezed, json serialization, and web_socket_channel, and enable code generation with build_runner for a websocket connection to the Coinbase API.
Set up Riverpod by wrapping your Flutter app with ProviderScope to enable Riverpod across the project, import the Riverpod dependency, and prepare to create providers later.
Set up a Coinbase public WebSocket connection to the sandbox market data feed, then create a Riverpod autoDispose provider for the Coinbase WebSocket client and log lifecycle events for debugging.
Set up a flutter web socket connection with riverpod to subscribe to the coinbase status channel and receive preset interval updates through a status repository.
Create a subscribe to status function that encodes the message to JSON and sends it via the WebSocket sink. Guard against disposed channels and manage isDisposed and isSubscribed.
Learn to listen to a Flutter WebSocket status stream with Riverpod, decode JSON to a string dynamic map, and feed data to the UI via a stream controller.
Create the stream provider and coin status provider for the repository. Wire a Coinbase WebSocket provider with an auto dispose stream to output a map of string to dynamic.
Build a UI for coin status by consuming WebSocket data with Riverpod, rendering a loading state, handling errors, and displaying a dynamic list of coins in a list view.
Create a coin status state and a coin status view model in a Riverpod setup, moving state management from the ui to the view model, using auto dispose notifier provider.
Learn to handle web socket errors with an on error reconnect flow, including a 3–5 second delay, a disposed check, and a max retry to prevent endless loops.
Reset and reinstantiate the Coinbase WebSocket connection using riverpod, via a refresh button, with proper disposal of channels and streams and unsubscribe before reinitialization.
Connect to a WebSocket to stream real-time price updates for selected products. Use a coin price repository and a Riverpod provider to manage subscriptions by product IDs and ticker channels.
Learn to build a coin price view model with Riverpod auto dispose and family notifier, wiring a price stream from the coin price repository via product id and WebSocket.
Create a coin price screen in Flutter using Riverpod that streams live prices via WebSocket and presents loading, data, and error states.
Integrate the go router provider with Riverpod in a Flutter app by adding the dependency, configuring routes, and passing a product id to the coin price screen.
Learn how to use riverport lint with Riverpod to catch provider issues, install and configure custom lint, run analysis, and refactor widgets to consumer variants.
Course Title: Flutter WebSocket Connection with Riverpod: Real-Time Data with Coinbase API
Unlock the power of real-time data in your Flutter applications!
