For the past few years, Flutter has revolutionized mobile app development by allowing developers to build high-performance, cross-platform applications with ease. However, building a full-stack application can be challenging because developers often juggle multiple languages and technologies to solve problems across an application stack.

This 120 minute workshop will explore how to build a full-stack application with server-side Dart and Flutter.

By leveraging the power of Flutter for the front-end and server-side Dart, developers can build high-performance applications with ease!

Details:

We will start by introducing the idea behind full-stack development in a single language. Following a quick intro to Flutter and server-side Dart and their key features, we will then dive into building a full-stack application, starting with the front-end using Flutter, and then moving onto the backend using Dart. We will cover topics such as handling user authentication, building RESTful APIs, and using a database to store data.

Throughout the workshop, we will highlight best practices for building full-stack applications and how to ensure that your application is scalable and maintainable. We will also highlight the advantages of using Flutter and server-side Dart together, including reduced development time and increased developer productivity.

By the end of the workshop, attendees will have a solid understanding of how to build a full-stack application using Flutter and server-side Dart. They will also have learned best practices for building scalable and maintainable applications and the benefits of using Flutter and server-side Dart together.

Key takeaways:

• Understanding the benefits of developing full-stack
• Introduction to Flutter
• Introduction to server-side Dart
• Data serialization between the application and API
• Data persistence
• Authenticating the client/server
• Deploying the application to the cloud

Workshop Tools:

• Install Flutter dev env for your system
• The Nitric SDK
• Docker Desktop, Postgres, Passage account
• AWS Account + CLI Setup (optional)
