This workshop is an introduction to mobile development using Flutter, Google's open-source framework for building cross-platform apps with a single codebase.

Alexandru Bordei, Flutter expert and long-time community mentor, will guide participants through the essentials of getting started with Flutter. You’ll learn how to approach Flutter’s project structure, use layout widgets, handle basic navigation, and build responsive user interfaces that adapt to different devices.

The session is designed with beginners in mind — focusing on a smooth learning curve, demystifying common roadblocks, and helping participants gain the confidence to continue exploring after the workshop.

We’ll also have open discussions about:

• Career paths and job opportunities in Flutter development
• Introduction to state management: what it is, and when it matters
• How AI tools (like ChatGPT, Copilot, and others) can assist in mobile development, from generating boilerplate code to solving bugs faster

Alexandru brings experience from dozens of workshops and talks across Romania and Europe, including DevTalks, CodeCamp, DevFest, FlutterCon, Flutter Bucharest Meetup, WordCamp, and more. His teaching is hands-on, real, and focused on helping beginners make sense of it all — without overwhelming them.

Whether you're curious about building your first mobile app or planning to dive into Flutter professionally, this workshop is a great place to start.

No prior Flutter experience is needed, and even if you’ve never touched mobile dev before, you’re welcome. Just bring your laptop, curiosity, and good vibes.
