Flutter.

Should I first write some code and learn the language and experiment with existing app projects from github

or

Can i dive deep into a real project from the start and basically keep googling for everything i dont know how to do?

I’m learning flutter too. I’m watching a course about it on udemy. I think it’s a great way to get started. After that I already have a project in mind I can put what I learned to practice

@otavio Yes but is it better to dive straight into the project and google on the go? Or first learn concepts through existing projects or what

@SukMikeHok I prefer to learn some concepts first

Shu-Ha-Ri my friend

I did option 2 without much problems, but I know react really well. I think that if you already know a tech like it, option 2 is doable

I think it depends on your skill level. If you are a relatively experienced dev you can pick up flutter by doing a project without too many problems.

I started doing option 2 about 1.5 years ago when flutter was still on beta. At the moment we have a production app running on both android and ios. I really recommend flutter docs as they're propably the best ones I've ever used.

Once you know the basic concepts such as widgets, keys, and the widget tree, you should be good to go. Stay clear of functional patterns when possible though, Flutter doesn't like them. Example would be using a function to create a widget which doesn't change. Every time something in the tree changes that function will be called regardless of its state.

After that just get started with a project and keep Googling, Flutter is too big to learn in one go. Best to just dive into it imo.

@Tayo thank you

Please watch/read Reso Coder's tutorials, he's very good
