Agenda

3:00 PM	Keynote (Komal Sandhu)
3:30 PM	A Composable New World	As our Twitter streams become flooded with the release of Jetpack Compose 1.0, it's time to jump into the UI declarative world and reform the XML and all of the `findViewById` calls that exist scattered throughout the code. Join me in this talk to see the first steps into this composable new world!
4:10 PM	Animations in Flutter: Bringing Life to Your Apps
4:50 PM	Cloud Workflows: What's new in serverless orchestration and automation	Join this session to understand how Cloud Workflows resolves challenges in connecting services, HTTP based service orchestration and automation. We are going to dive deep how serverless HTTP service automation works to automate step engines. Based on practical examples we will demonstrate the newest features that lets you automate the cloud and integration with any Google Cloud product without worrying about authentication.
5:25 PM	Giveaway Break	Internet Data giveaway for community members live.
5:30 PM	Saving Data Locally in Flutter	Take a scenario where you were typing some data on your app, eg filling up a form but you happen to exit the app or press the back button, but when you come back you still find the data that you were filling still there. How was the app able to retain that data? Well I will teach you how to go about saving data locally.
