    Study Notes

    Flutter Introduction

    • Flutter is an open-source mobile application development framework developed by Google.
    • It allows for the creation of beautiful, natively compiled, multi-platform applications from a single codebase.
    • This means developers can build applications for iOS, Android, web, Windows, macOS, Linux, and embedded systems using a single codebase.

    Why Flutter?

    • Cross-platform: Develop for multiple platforms (iOS, Android, web, etc.) from a single codebase.
    • Fast: Compiles to ARM or Intel machine code and JavaScript for high performance on any device.
    • Flexible: Developers have control over every pixel for customized, adaptive designs.
    • Beautiful: No compromises for designers, allowing for visually appealing applications.
    • Productive: Hot Reload feature enables quick iteration and updates without losing application state.
    • Open source: Everything is free to use and open source.

    Flutter Key Features

    • Cross-Platform Language: Build natively compiled applications for mobile, web, and desktop from a single codebase.

    • Fast: Flutter code compiles to ARM or Intel machine code as well as JavaScript, for fast performance.

    • Flexible: Full control over every pixel for customized and adaptive designs.

    • Beautiful: No compromise on visual appeal and design.

    • Productive: Hot Reload enables quick iteration without losing application state.

    • Open: The framework and associated libraries are open-source and free.

    • Portable: Same code runs across platforms.

    • Build Anywhere: Compatible with various development tools and platforms.

    Dart Introduction

    • Dart is a client-optimized language for creating fast, high-performing apps for any platform.
    • Its use is core to Flutter, and it's used for building mobile, web, and desktop applications.
    • Dart is an object-oriented, class-based, garbage-collected programming language.
    • Its syntax shares similarities with other languages (like C-style).

    Dart Features

    • Easy to Understand: The code reuse makes programs very clean and easy to understand.
    • Object-Oriented Programming (OOP): Dart incorporates the fundamental OOP features of modern languages such as Java, C++, etc., making it easy for programmers to follow the same principles and concepts from other languages while using Dart.
    • Open Source: Many organizations and developers use Dart's open-source nature to contribute and create more efficient ways to apply Dart.
    • Browser Support: Dart is supported by all browsers due to its dart2js compiler, and it converts Dart programs to Javascript code for processing on modern browsers.
    • Type-Safe: Dart is considered type-safe due to the combination of static and runtime checks that ensure variable values match variable type.
    • Flexible Compilation and Execution: Dart supports both JIT (Just-In-Time) and AOT (Ahead-of-Time) compilations.
    • Asynchronous Programming: Dart supports asynchronous programming, meaning the program can respond to other sets of tasks while executing a primary set of tasks.

    Flutter Structure

    • Material App
    • Scaffold
    • Center
    • Text

    Different Types of Dart Variables

    • Static: Variables declared with a specific data type.
    • Dynamic: Variables whose data type is determined at runtime.
    • Final or const: Declaring constant variables that can not change during compilation and runtime.

    Null Safety

    • Dart's default behavior is to not allow variables to be assigned null until they are explicitly defined to accept null values.
    • To declare a variable as nullable, append a '?' to the type of the variable.

    Dart Operators

    • Arithmetic: Operators for basic mathematical operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, modulus, etc.).
    • Relational: Operators used to compare values to return a boolean value.
    • Type Test: Operators (e.g., is, is!) for checking the type of an object.
    • Logical: Operators used to combine or reverse boolean expressions and return true or false
    • Bitwise: Operators for performing bitwise operations.
    • Conditional: Operator that simplifies if-else statements in different contexts.
    • Assignment: Operator assigning a value to a variable.

    Standard Input/Output in Dart

    • Dart supports input from the console using stdin.readLineSync().
    • Output to the console can be done using print() statements.

    Dart Data Types

    • Number: int, double, num, BigInt
    • Strings: String
    • Booleans: bool
    • Lists: List
    • Maps: Map

    Flutter Widgets

    • Central building blocks for creating user interfaces in Flutter.

    • Describe how app views should look and behave.

    • Widgets can be visible (output, input) or invisible (layout, control).

    • Visible Widgets: Text, Button, Image

    • Invisible Widgets: Column, Row, Center, Padding, Scaffold, Stack, Icon

    • State Management widgets:

    • StatelessWidget

    • Stateful Widget

    Flutter Layouts

    • Single Child Widgets: Container, Padding, Center, SizedBox, AspectRatio, Baseline, ConstrainedBox
    • Multiple Child Widgets: Row, Column, ListView, GridView, Stack, Expanded

    Flutter Gestures

    • Pointers: Raw data about user interaction (touches, mouse).
    • Gestures: Semantic actions based on pointer events (tap, drag, long press)

    Flutter State Management

    • Ephemeral State: related to a specific widget.
    • App State: Shared among different parts of the app, persists across user sessions.

    Database Packages in Flutter

    • Sqflite: Lightweight, serverless, relational.
    • Firebase: Cloud-based, real-time data synchronization.

    Database Steps

    • Create a project.
    • Define a model class.
    • Open the Database.
    • Create a Table.
