SO IT WAS YOU OMG. this app was a life saver during school years
Nice to meet you! 😊
This video showed up on my home page and I was surprised you only had 100 subscribers and as a Flutter user for 4 years now I tell you welcome and I hope to see you at a 100k then a million soon. Also as a flutter developer for 4 years I highly recommend you give flutter flow a chance.
I heard about it, but it's too much code generation for me. I'm more of a behind the scenes kind of guy, I need to organize things myself. But I will try it just for fun, maybe I like it.
Flutter flow is hot garbage tbh. If you don't know how to code and want to create something on the go, you might as well use it.
@@erickheredia8910 What's hot garbage about it?
As a flutter developper for 4 years (not trolling), I discourage you using flutter flow. If you are used to build UI, flutter documentation is awesome and you will not have any trouble
@@gaxkiller what’s not good about Flutterflow?
video was on my home page 18 JAN 2024. Thanks for the video
wow loved the video qualtiy and the presentation, waiting for more videos
We've also been creating Flutter apps for 4 years now, but you're so cool and inspiring. Cheers!
DUDE THIS IS AMAZING. Good pacing, thoughtful structure, and brilliant explanations.
Great work 🎉. The current UI is still pretty good and easy to use. I am eager to try out the new version.
Will take some time until it's ready, but I'll post the progress here 😊
Welcome to Flutter. I would love to see how you use flutter for graphs and some videos on painting with Flutter.
Thanks for sharing your experience with switching
This was a great and very well put video thanks and kudos.
Finally welcome my Friend 💡💡
It's great to see that you chose one of the best packages for each criteria from the beginning.
Even though you might not feel the difference but there are better packages for local storage in terms of read/write speed.
Overall awesome start. You could not have started any better.
With shared_preferences I only worry about the read speed once at the cold start of the app, since it caches everything in memory. No async operation after that. I am aware that my needs are minimal, and they don't really impact performance. For a bigger app, maybe I would worry but for this it's ok.
Great video, state management framework is good. But I'm turning from XML to Jetpack compose as i am in love witj Kotlin and its features. Plus,compose is already multiplatform
Cool, I have been using your app for a long time, never thought Ill see who made it, good job! Also, I can confidently say that you did the right thing when choosing flutter, it will help a ton and it is years ahead of anything like react native (talking from years of experience from a job where we tried multiple solutions and lectures at a university I teach). Anyway keep up the good job, excited to see the rewrite once it hits the stores.
Ps: if you ever look for a tester, ill be happy to jump in.
It's crazy to finally be able to meet users of the app here. In all these years, aside from the store reviews, I've never met one person who had the app on their phone. Feels nice!
@@andreiIupsa it is a great app, I actually install it on all my family members devices as well. It is handy as it includes so many tools in one app.
@@andreiIupsawhat's the name of the app in playstore
@@andreiIupsawhat's your app about? What's it name too?
Welcome, need to spread this tool widely
I didn't know you made that app. I used it a lot in high-school
Glad to see a fellow Transylvanian Flutter developer! 😊Nice job so far! I think you made the right choices. I'm building my own projects with Flutter, and having a blast.
Great video!
Agreed! what are your thoughts about React Native and Expo? Good luck on your NEW upgrade!
Flutter is Amazing, I really like the development experience and auto-completion, for me, that's all I need to love any language
One reason to switch to Fluttet is HOT RELOAD 😂❤
This switch is the best decision to make in 2024. Native performance to up to 120fps and you can run your app everywhere. I was so happy to make the switch from RN to flutter.
Bro give a road map I want to be a mobile app developer with Kotlin and flutter
Worth watching
I would love to see u make a video tutorial of your calculator project using flutter. I like how to manage code it looked really neat.
After I finish the calculator, I will make a video about it! 🙂

Hi, thanks for the video. I am about to create a mobile app and web app for my project idea. Firstly, I designed all of the screens in Figma then Im learning how to create a web app with Flutter.
My question is, when I create a web app with Flutter, how fast could be this web app? (and also safety?)
Good one
Wow so easy to understand and good video
yeah, but do i need all that material ui?
Wonderful Video, Did you give a chance to REACT Native?
What are your opinions on flutter on desktop (for native apps, not electron/tauri)? Is JavaFX, Qt, etc. a better option?
Are you going to do a tutorial to convert your app over? I would follow it for sure.
Best decision! I am switched from iOS Swift and Android Kotlin to Flutter since 2019 and I only work with the native stuff for plugins, app widgets, android wear and the Apple Watch
great video, I subscribe !
Nice Video!
💥
Your project is very interesting, I also look forward to learning flutter later on this year. Can you tell what you use to edit your video?
Final Cut Pro
Amazing vide man! Please do more flutter contnet. Also, could you zoom in on the code a little bit more? It's difficult to read
Amazing video
subscribed! please do more flutter videos!
I love Flutter! 😁For me it's best framework to make mobile apps as for now!
Cool content, New subscriber here 🔥
What theme are you using with your android studio,, looks dope
I made the switch to the new IntelliJ UI a few months ago. Takes some time to get used to, but it's worth it!
This video is very educative thank you, hope you can share the basic config for your app as repository so we as beginners can have solid structured folders to reuse with the app.
Hi its very nice! How much Firebase bill do you get?
This month I'm sitting at $0.48 😁
Since, you are already used to working with Kotlin, what was the main reason you didn't decide to go with compose multiplatform?
IOs is still in alpha version
just curious about something
why not just using KMP?
great story telling.
Thank you!
Very cool video, you picked great dependencies, these are all some of the best-practice respecting and highly regarded choices. Superbase is a great OSS alternative to Firebase, but Firebase excels in simplicity and is unparalleled regarding intergration with dart code. You also grasped the benefits and essence of flutter, knowing how much of a pain the xmls for android are, you'll love building UIs with Flutter. I'll be interested to see what your first qualms with the framework will be, especially coming from native.
The lack of a lifecycle. Where are my onPause() and onResume() methods? 😁
I want to start flutter too. Which ide are you using and also how to set up my environment for flutter development?
I am using Android Studio, and the default documentation is all that you need. 😊
use signals for state management
what is the translation site you were using
That site is called POEditor
The first framework I'm learning is Flutter.I began to grasp the concept of flutter. I'm not sure if I'm headed in the correct direction or if there's a better route.
Me neither, but hey.. It's not like in a few years, everything you learn now wouldn't be obsolete. Everything changes, so embrace it! 🙂
Pls make more flutter videos 💙
Hi, Andrei!
Very good video on the topic.
Personally, I've used XML (old Android Native), Jetpack Compose (the new way of developing native Android) and Flutter to develop mobile apps, but I didn't like Flutter due to the fact that you required external libraries to do simple things like navigation, rendering SVGs and other things. Another thing I didn't like about Flutter was the actual language it uses (Dart).
If you're looking for an alternative to Flutter for developing multiplatform apps using Kotlin there's alternatives like Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile, Compose Multiplatform, and I'm pretty sure there's other ones. Either way, you should choose the platform depending on your needs and requirements, but if you can enjoy the technology then the better.
I actually enjoy Dart. There are a few things I miss from Kotlin, especially the run let apply scope functions, but I can live without them. And yes, realizing I need libraries for simple things like localization or rendering SVGs was a bummer.
Because Flutter is the Best 💙🤘 Welcome to the Dart side my friend 😎🤝
it would be nicer if you could zoom in in video for while showing text... it's hard for me to see thing even in a laptop screen when resolution was anything below 1080p.. so can't imaging how mobile users could see this...
Welcome to the Flutter Community 🎉
Kotlin multi-platform is great too. Maybe give it a try?
Please use dark mode in your IDE, make the font bigger , thanks
Tried switching to dark mode. Couldn't get used to it. Sorry! 😊
@@andreiIupsa Oh ok, maybe only while recording it would be great
@@andreiIupsa I am a light mode kind of guy myself, but still, when presenting code, dark mode is a clear choice since:
1) there is a high, jarring contrast between real-world dimly-lit warmer shots, and light af code shots. The difference in luminance is headache inducing.
2) people watch youtube without the lights on a heafty amount of time.
3) code size being unintelligibly small does distract as well. Especially as most content is consumed on mobile.
Not trying to be harsh, but felt like light mode and font size detracted greatly from the viewing experience.
You never thought about react native? (just wondering)
I'm doing the opposite 😅 Currently switching from flutter to native android (Jetpack compose)
Flutter is the way to go if your app doesn't require too much interaction with the hardware (sensors, etc.)
Agree. My app doesn't need too much interaction so it's the perfect candidate.
Sooo, why not Kotlin Multiplatform with Compose?
where is that code
Welcome to Flutter, u obviously made the right choice. Flutter 4ever.
new Sub
Good choice, welcome to Flutter 🎈
Thanks! 😄
I think whenever you present something with code please increase font size we could barely see it on full HD
Good point, noted!
What should I learn of specific topics for navigation like facebook mobile app ? Example keep scroll position on both page navigation .
@ThanHtutZaw3 Supplying a page storage key to your ListView will help you achieve that - keeping scroll position after navigation.
use auto_route, this library allows you to save other tab state
can u make a video on react vs flutter and what is the future of AI will it hurt or android developer jobs if its integrated in SDK
also make a video on which is better react or flutter (which has more jobs , more future opportunities and easy to learn , less boiler plate code , and also fun)
why not react-native?
hey i am learning flutter can i contribute to your project
It's good to know you've shifted to Flutter.
Would you make Flutter tutorials on this channel?
Well, the next video is totally unrelated to anything I've made so far, so we'll see. The channel is 3 weeks old, I don't have a "niche" yet. I'm just throwing things at the algorithm to test it and see what sticks. Honestly at the moment I'm the one who needs Flutter tutorials. 😁
Yes, I got you. I think you've already carved a niche for yourself 😀. I've not seen any channel talked about how to monetize side projects like you did it here. So keep it up 💪.
flutter development experience is great
Did you at any point think of React Native before settling with Flutter?
I am grappling with that choice for my pet project.
react native would definitely be a better choice. Flutter is as dead as dead can be
@@blessedpigeon6304 Thanks man
react native is supported by libraries in nodejs. It means you can use nodejs library for react native. it is a strong point.
Be careful with what they mention above. If the final result is what matters most to you, then in terms of performance, React native is the worst option.
RN < Flutter < Native
Thanks, guys for chipping in.
Can you also make a video about Flet in python or atleast talk about it
i mean switching from pure native to Flutter is fine,
but what about switching from ReactNative expo to Flutter, here is interesting to know
What about compose Multiplatform?
IOs is still in alpha version
Flutter is life!
Please talk about your app's revenues
Welcome to Flutter brother, you'll certainly enjoy it.
I hope so!
it would be rather to use react native
why not switch to KMP or compose multiplatform ??
It's too young of a framework. I'd give it at least 1 or 2 years first. We'll see..
react native?
What's your reasoning for choosing Flutter over React Native?
JavaScript 😁
javascript, html, and css
Yeay riverpod.
What where you using before flutter
As shown and explained in the Video he used Kotlin (native Android ) before switching to Flutter! He wants to target iOS to so Crossplatform frameworks like React Native and Flutter are the best if you want to support both platform in one codebase
what do you think about flutterflow?
Seems like magic, but haven't tried it yet to tell you more.
better use BLoC you can filter out unnecessary rebuild.
I notice whenever i used Flutter made app my phone is always heating up. like i'm Gaming. but im just requesting JSON file on internet and displaying it on a screen noticing fancy.
Didn't happen to me. Maybe I should start testing on lower end devices but my Pixel 7 handles it like a dream and it's not a flagship anymore.
I like your style. I just discovered your channel and got hooked to it. As an indie developer myself, I can find a lot of similarities with what you are doing and your way of thinking. I am also a perfectionist and like to have things organized, but you are way more extreme than me on that :D . Congrats so far for the channel and I wish you good luck on keeping it up. Hopefully you will not take down as the other channels when shooting and editing videos become too much work for you. Anyway, I have a question for you. What is the platform you are using here: ua-cam.com/video/3WAEQ-zKAqg/v-deo.html ?
POEditor. I use it to crowdsource my translations, and it works flawlessly!
thank you@@andreiIupsa
It seems you haven't heard about KMM
Are you planning to make it open source cause It will give a starting point to many new developers on how to build apps with so much robustness and good principles and archetecture and may be just may be It will help you complete it faster and bugs could be fixed by community members as well (I would love to learn as well as contribute my knowledge)
Please make It open source
I considered this for a long time, but.. The moment I make it open source there will be 50 apps like it with different names on the store. Look what happened with ClevCalc. They forgot to obfuscate it (my guess) and woke up with dozens of copycats overnight. So for now, I have no plans to do it. 😊
Have you thought about Kotlin Multiplatform? I am an Android dev and I have a few flutter projects as well. I prefer flutter for cross platform but if KMP was stable when I started that may have been the route to go
Well, with KMP you still need to worry about writing the UI separately, right? In that case, it deppends. If you have a lot of business logic you need to write, KMP makes sense. But for me, my app is mostly UI, so Flutter was the way to go.
@@andreiIupsa Now with KMP you can write compose for all platform, including iOS. So if you had some logic used in Kotlin you can reuse that in your KMP code.
Are you related to Robin Williams?
why you don't choose React native
I don't like JavaScript! 😊
Hey Andrei! Jetpack compose is super awesome. Probably one of the best thing Android ever developed.
As you're also targetting iOS, Flutter is the best option. Eventually it'll take rougly same time to get used to with Flutter or Jetpack compose.
Jetpack compose was the logical step if it wasn't for Flutter. We'll see 😊
native android is over engineered also limits to android for a saas product , flutter is doing good and with impeller rendering engine it will be a game changer
Wecolme to Wonderful Flutter World
Front dev are like him - sweet boys, Real Men are backend developers
I'm blushing already, stop! 😊
