Free resources to learn and advance in Flutter
Hey, this is my personal collection of free Flutter resources. If I missed some great resources, please add them in comments!
Official Doc
The official documentation is the most important source for me. If I have questions, it is the first place where I look.
- Install Flutter here: https://flutter.dev/docs/get-started/install
- Flutter docs: https://flutter.dev/docs
If you have an existing background in Android/iOS/Web/React/Xamarin, you can catch up pretty quickly with Flutter using tutorials provided below.
- Flutter is Open Source. You can always have a look at the source code to learn it. It is the best documentation! https://github.com/flutter
- Flutter for Android devs: https://flutter.dev/docs/get-started/flutter-for/android-devs
- Flutter for iOS devs: https://flutter.dev/docs/get-started/flutter-for/ios-devs
- Flutter for Web devs: https://flutter.dev/docs/get-started/flutter-for/web-devs
- Flutter for React Native devs: https://flutter.dev/docs/get-started/flutter-for/react-native-devs
- Flutter for Xamarin.Forms dev: https://flutter.dev/docs/get-started/flutter-for/xamarin-forms-devs
- Flutter Cookbook (it demonstrates how to solve common problems): https://flutter.dev/docs/cookbook
Google Codelabs
Video Courses
Here is only one course, because I went through it and can recommend. I’m sure there are more good courses, but I didn’t have a look at them.
- Free Udacity course: https://www.udacity.com/course/build-native-mobile-apps-with-flutter--ud905
Flutter Gallery app and Examples
