Networking and API Integration for Flutter Developers

In this talk, we will discuss the basics of networking and API integration, two essential skills for all Flutter developers. We will start by defining what networking and APIs are, and why they are important. We will then discuss how to make HTTP requests and parse JSON data, two common tasks that are required for networking and API integration. Finally, we will cover some specific APIs that Flutter developers commonly use, such as the Google Maps API and the OpenWeatherMap API.

By the end of this talk, you will be able to:

1, Understand the basics of networking and API integration
2. Make HTTP requests and parse JSON data
3. Use some common APIs in your Flutter apps

This talk is intended for beginner Flutter developers who want to learn more about networking and API integration. It is a good starting point for anyone who wants to build Flutter apps that interact with the internet.

Integration Firebase Authentication, Storage, Firestore and Cloud Messaging in Flutter

Flutter makes App Development fun. In today’s world most apps need a form of security, Firebase Authentication can help is this regard. Firebase firestore helps in storing user or app information and storage helps store files. The aim of this codelab is to explain and layout the best way to integrate these services into your app and leverage on these technologies.

Integrating Firebase Authentication in Flutter

Flutter is a wonderful Mobile App Development framework which helps developers build both android and iOS apps but integrating firebase Authentication can be a little troublesome. This talk will outline the various steps to take to successfully integrate Firebase Authentication into your Flutter app.

Flutter design patterns

In this session, I will describe OOP design patterns, their implementation in Dart programming language and how to use them when developing Flutter applications.
This talk is heavily based on the “Gang of Four” (GoF) book “Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software”, which, in my opinion, is one of the most iconic software engineering books about software design patterns. This book contains more than 20 different OOP design patterns.
We will look at:
1. Singleton
2. Adapter
3. Strategy
4. State
5. Facade
6. Prototype
