Flutter with Firebase
Recently I spoke at multiple DevFests and one of my most favourite topic was “Flutter with Firebase”. No matter what both the technologies have made lives of developer easy. The scope of these products is huge as they cover multiple platforms like Android, iOS and Web. Another common purpose to use Flutter and Firebase is both of these products help in improving the performance of your application and best thing — they’re easy to use. While both of them have made their debut recently, they have gained popularity in no time and are trusted by the largest apps.
What is Flutter?
My response to you in two lines —
- Flutter is Google’s UI toolkit that helps you that helps you build beautiful and natively combined applications for mobile, web and desktop in a single codebase in a record time.
- Flutter is all about widgets! Everything that you see on your screen is a widget — button, text, list etc.
Widgets are compiled to native ARM code using Dart’s compilers and are customisable.
3 Fundamentals of Flutter —
1. Widgets : In Flutter, everything is a widget. Widgets are building blocks of UI that you can combine to make a complete app. Building an app Flutter is like joining a puzzle— block by block. Widgets are nested inside of each other to build your app.
