Complete beginners
You’ve never built an iOS or Android app before and want a guided path that doesn’t assume prior mobile development experience.
Flutter & Dart - The Complete Guide
A Complete Guide to the Flutter SDK & Flutter Framework for building native iOS and Android apps
Course Overview
About This Course
You want to build real mobile apps, but the path feels messy: different platforms, different languages, and a lot of “hello world” tutorials that never turn into something you can ship. You’re looking for a clear, reliable way to move from curiosity to confidence.
In this course, you’ll be guided step-by-step through Flutter and Dart with a practice-oriented flow that keeps you building as you go. You’ll start at zero if you need to, but you won’t get stuck at the basics—you’ll keep stacking skills until you can handle the kinds of features modern apps actually need.
By the end, you’ll be able to create engaging, high-performance apps for both iOS and Android from a single codebase. You’ll know how to put together polished screens, connect to real services, and turn your ideas into apps that feel complete—not like prototypes.
What You'll Learn
You’ll cover the full Flutter workflow: from setup and widgets to navigation, state, backend communication, and native device integrations.
Set up Flutter
Install and configure Flutter for development on Windows or macOS, and understand what’s required to build for Android vs. iOS (including the macOS requirement for iOS builds).
Build with widgets
Create responsive UIs by combining Flutter’s built-in widget suite and writing your own custom widgets, so you can design screens that look and feel native on both platforms.
Navigate between pages
Implement page navigation patterns like tabs, side drawers, and stack-based navigation to structure multi-screen apps that users can move through naturally.
Manage state and forms
Handle app state with state management solutions, and build forms that validate user input so your UI stays consistent and your data stays clean.
Connect to backends
Send HTTP requests to backend servers, wire up user authentication, and use debugging tips & tricks to track down issues when real data and real users enter the picture.
Add native features
Integrate Google Maps and device capabilities like the camera, then support image upload and push notifications (manual and automated) to deliver the features users expect.
Ready to get started?
See enrollment optionsPrerequisites
Basic programming knowledge helps, but it’s not required—this course starts at zero.
No prior Flutter or Dart experience is needed.
You can develop Android apps on Windows, macOS, or Linux; building iOS apps requires macOS.
Who Is This Course For?
Cross-platform builders
You want to create iOS and Android apps without maintaining two separate codebases, and you’re ready to commit to one language for both platforms.
iOS/Android developers
You already know native development (Swift/Objective-C or Java/Kotlin) and want to expand into Flutter to ship cross-platform apps faster with a single approach.
