Course Overview
Getting started with Flutter is easy enough.
Once you know about the most important widgets, you can start building apps and add features.
But unless you have a robust architecture in place, you’ll soon run into problems and start questioning your decisions:
- This widget does way too much, but where should all this logic go?
- I have bugs! How do I fix them and prevent new ones from appearing?
- I know I should write tests for this code, but I don’t know how. Help!
- Maybe I should just delete everything and start again! But how can I get it right next time?
I know how you feel. I’ve been there myself.
Now, imagine...
- Feeling confident about how to structure your code
- Knowing how to write automated tests for almost any case you can think of
- Having a repeatable process for adding new features, reliably
- Becoming comfortable with the entire app development lifecycle, from planning to implementation to deployment
Sounds good, right?
To help you get there, I’ll guide you through the process of building a real-world eCommerce app in Flutter. And I’ll explain my reasoning and decision-making all along.
You could waste hours or days trying to make sense of it all with some random tutorials.
Or you can learn with the techniques and best practices I learned through years of experience, all distilled into a well-structured curriculum that goes above and beyond what you can find on YouTube or Udemy.
Loved the course and got a lot out of it.
Especially appreciated how Andrea doesn't just show you the "right way" to do things from the start. He shows common errors and pitfalls and how to get around them, and eventually end up at the "right way" with a better understanding of how to actually get there in your own projects.
The course also has a healthy balance of code-alongs for relevant portions and provides you with updated project files throughout, so you don't have to spend hours manually going through every single line of the project.
It could be my previous experience with writing code but DART explained by Andrea was smooth.
I never really understood OOP and I struggled in that area until I watched this course. I made sure I tried and completed every exercise even though it took me days.
Excellent course. Excellent Instructor, well knowledgeable and resourceful. Would totally recommend.
Andrea is the best! I love his passion and enthusiasm and dedication to teaching.
He cares deeply about programming and sharing his knowledge and experience with his students.
Andrea's teaching style is awesome.
I have been building Flutter apps for close to 3 years, and I still find a lot of useful and new material with his courses and articles.
Andrea has some of the highest quality online courses I have seen. He does not gloss over the issues of optimization or best practices that so many other courses do.
You can adapt what you learn from his courses, right into real-world applications!
Up-to-date content, didactic instructor, good support community on Slack, additional resources, tutorials and optional videos with the latest advances in Flutter.
Concise and direct to the point, with a huge number of diagrams. A colossal amount of work to simplify our learning.
Everything's clear. I really love the way you explain, concise but completely understandable. Not a single detail is missed on any topic that is covered, and if so, you always leave references to really useful articles.
No doubt that anyone who take this course will end up with complete and strong Flutter skills.
I have spent the weekend on just this lesson. It was a great time investment to watch the lessons, follow the links, and do the suggested homework.
Although I've been working with Flutter for almost a year and have taken several other courses, I feel like my skills have advanced further and faster this weekend than at any other point in the past year. Thank you!

A Complete Flutter Curriculum
I'm creating an extensive curriculum made of multiple courses, covering many advanced topics that you'll need as a professional Flutter developer.
Since all the Flutter foundations around app architecture, state management, and testing are so important, I'll cover them first as a standalone course.
Then, I will release a follow-up course about Firebase, covering everything you need to build full-stack apps with Flutter & Firebase, complete with backend integration using Cloud Functions and 3rd party integrations like Stripe and Algolia.
And finally, I'll publish an in-depth course about using Flutter in production. This will show you how to setup CI/CD workflows with GitHub Actions and Fastlane, as well as how to deploy your apps to Google Play and the App Store.
In creating these courses, I'll bring over a decade of experience in mobile app development, spend countless hours researching, learning, and experimenting with different techniques, and condense everything into a comprehensive curriculum.

This is a great foundation course for aspiring Flutter devs.
Rather than learning from the top down (starting with rendering widgets etc), this course provides fundamental concepts which form the basis of developing robust, well-architected apps.
This is especially important for those who are not coming from a software engineering background.
Andrea is a naturally good teacher, who covers the material at a nice pace, and takes the time to explain context and what is going on as he proceeds through the course.
I'm looking forward to the follow up courses too!
Yet another outstanding Flutter course, where Andrea guides us through the design and setup of an elegant and robust eCommerce solution, using Riverpod and GoRouter.
What makes this course outstanding are the clear explanations and rationales given for each design choice.
The app architecture Andrea introduces is well structured - one could even say very elegantly crafted. And it is all covered in clear and easy-to-digest steps.
Using what you learn here, you can take your Flutter skills to the next level and createclean, scalable, and robust production-ready Flutter apps.
The course series is still in production as I write this review. Having completed what is available so far, it is, in my opinion, on the path to becoming the “Flutter masterclass” reference course.
Absolutely great course so far. You have just enough written for us that we're not mindlessly copying your code and losing context on what we are actually trying to learn.
Also, everything is precise and to the point. Every word said has been planned to give maximum weight and explanation to the lesson.
I can tell you spent a long time putting this together, and it shows. I wish other instructors were half as good as you at creating course content, putting it in the correct ratio of doing some for us beforehand, coding along with you, and giving other related info we need.
Even the links and other optional course material are top-notch. Thanks so much for a great course.
This is, by far, the best Flutter video course I've followed.
It is very difficult to find such a comprehensive yet well-explained and easy-to-follow set of information about building a "real world" Flutter app using a sound architecture and powerful state management techniques.
You are hitting the correct balance between intermediate and advanced concepts that translate into a very usable learning curve and information easily transportable into other projects.
I've borrowed many ideas already and I'm looking forward to the next course!
The content is simply exemplary. If you are interested in creating cross-device apps, then Flutter is a great choice and Andrea's lessons will get you up to speed.
If you care about good architecture, Andrea will help you out with a sensible approach that will make your code readable and maintainable.
I'm starting to realize that I was doing things the wrong way from the beginning.
I'm excited to see that I'm finally learning the best practices for working on a Flutter app, and I'm sure I will become very confident about building the complex app that I need.
I spent over 800 hours making this a high-quality course and I'm confident you'll get a lot of value out of it.
But if you're not happy with it, for any reason, you can reach out within 30 days of purchase to get a full refund.

To make the most of them, you'll need to be already familiar with the Dart language (my Dart course can help with that) and how to build apps with Flutter.
The sections about state management and navigation will use the Riverpod and go_router packages, starting from the basics (it's ok if you haven't used them before).
Likewise, it's ok if you don't know how to use Firebase yet. I'll cover the basics quickly and then move on to the more advanced topics.
Ultimately, you'll become confident with the entire app development lifecycle, have a full eCommerce app to show for it, and save lot of time and effort in the future.
Success Stories
Kind words from my students
Andrea clearly put a lot work into the material, and after completing solely this course, now I really feel like I now know the fundamentals of Dart and am ready to finally dive into Flutter with confidence!
Thank you again for this great course, I went through some of the lessons multiple times, but it was definitely worth it, and will surely revisit some of the topics if needed.
I love that all topics are separated into short videos, and that every second of every video is valuable (not wasting our time for a moment).
I can honestly say that Andrea's knowledge and guidance is top notch! He explains the principles well which helps you understand the concepts and structures within the Dart language.
This course is a great asset to anyone looking to improve their coding skills. Having Andrea by your side, you should feel privileged to have a mentor / coach of his caliber, who shares his knowledge in such an "easy to understand" manner. Thanks!
Animations have always been my weak point, but Andrea's course covers most if not all the biggest Animation topics, and does so with lots of examples.
Another fantastic course from a great teacher.
Andrea always goes in-depth by creating high-quality courses, and this one does not disappoint.
Learning about animations in Flutter is vital to building beautiful and engaging applications.
I highly recommend this course if you want to master animations in Flutter!
Very well structured course. Easy to understand and Andrea answers questions in his lectures actively.
There's a lot of complex subjects and concepts that Andrea has helped me feel comfortable enough to grasp with his teaching style.
Top notch and highly recommend this course if you're looking to learn Flutter, Dart and Firebase.
Clear explanations, a useful practical application that demonstrates all the core things essential to building an app ready for release into the wild.
Every step taken is clearly and thoroughly explained, plus downloadable code for every section of this course. A fantastic current course and is proving invaluable for strategies for building ideas for my own app.
Cannot praise this course and Andrea’s presentation highly enough.

No. Not now, not ever.
The only place to buy these courses is here.
How long are the courses?
Each course will include between 5 and 15 hours of content.
When will the courses be released?
You can already purchase the Flutter Foundations course today.
The other two courses will be published in the first half of 2023.
How much will the courses cost?
The Flutter Foundations course costs $129 currently and the price will increase over time.
The pricing for the two remaining courses will be announced later on.
Will you offer a pre-sale discount?
Yes. By signing up today you can secure your discount and be the first to know when the courses become available.
