Build small widget and layout exercises.

6 hours/week

Add data, navigation, persistence, and tests.

10 hours/week

Project Progression

Beginner: local habit tracker

Intermediate: API-backed multi-screen app

Portfolio: tested app with state architecture, offline behavior, accessibility, and release configuration

Common Mistakes

  • Choosing a complex state library before understanding widget state
  • Putting network calls directly in widgets without boundaries
  • Ignoring rebuild behavior
  • Treating Android and iOS release requirements as identical

Job-Ready Skills

  • Dart and async
  • Flutter widgets/layout
  • State management
  • Networking/persistence
  • Testing
  • Cross-platform release
