Flutter In Production

Course Overview

Picture this: you've built an amazing Flutter app. You’re feeling excited and you’re almost ready to launch it.

But hold on!

If you're not prepared for release, you’ll face some challenges:

• No Analytics = No Insights: Which features captivate your users, and which ones don't? Without robust analytics, you're navigating blind.
• App Crashes: Which issues are affecting users in production? What's their impact? Are you prepared to address them effectively?
• App Store Rejections: Missed guidelines and bugs can halt your launch. How swiftly can you address and resubmit?
• Release Management: Have you streamlined your release process? Is it automated with CI/CD pipelines?
• Force Update Strategies: If needed, can you force users to update to the latest version of your app?

These challenges can set you back, but if you put the right things in place, you’ll save a lot of time and money later.

Now, imagine…

• Having a clear release plan, along with detailed guides and checklists so you don’t miss any important steps
• Being confident about the app submission and review process on the App Store and Play Store
• Having a completely automated process for deploying your app releases with ease
• Being able to monitor your apps in production, get user feedback, and resolve issues effectively

I created this course to help you with all these critical aspects, and many more.

Introducing

Flutter in Production

This course is your comprehensive guide to shipping your Flutter apps with confidence. Here's how it’s organized. 👇

Part 1: Preparing for Release

In this first part, you’ll learn about:

• App Icons and Splash Screens
• Multiple Flavors and Environments
• Error Monitoring
• Analytics
• Force Update Strategies
• Collecting user feedback and in-app reviews
• Creating a website for your app

These things take time, but they are crucial for a successful app launch. And with my guidance, you’ll breeze through them.

Part 2: Release Management and Automation

With preparations complete, it’s time to launch.

But submitting your app to the stores involves a lot of red tape. So, all the important steps will be covered in detail (both for testing and distribution):

• Manual Android release: build, code sign, upload, and submit your Android app to the Google Play Store
• Manual iOS release: build, code sign, upload, and submit your iOS app to App Store Connect

Manual releases take a lot of time, so you’ll want to automate the whole process:

• Release Automation with Codemagic (quick setup)
• Release Automation with GitHub Actions with Fastlane (advanced setup with more control)

By this stage, you’ll have the tools and knowledge to manage and automate your app releases, making them seamless and scalable.

Part 3: Post-Release Techniques

Your app is live — what's next? Enhance and improve your process even further:

• Automated screenshot generation
• Code push
• Feature Flags
• A/B testing

Note: I’m still researching these additional topics and the final curriculum may change.

I know. You could find all this information online, but it would take you weeks to gather and understand everything, and you'll still have an incomplete picture of how all these things fit together. By condensing all my knowledge and experience into this course, I can help you get your app to the stores faster and with fewer headaches.

Course Format

Unlike my previous courses, this is primarily a text-based course.

Each module includes clear and concise lessons, explaining the concepts with a combination of text, code snippets, and illustrations. Where appropriate, I will also include video tutorials to demonstrate complex tasks or workflows.

While I recommend to follow the course from beginning to end, each module will be self-contained, so you should be able to “jump in” and learn about individual topics without problems.

This course is meant both for learning and as a reference guide. So, you’ll also find useful checklists that will help you “tick all the boxes” before moving to the next stage. And guess what? The official course project is an app release checklist made with Flutter. 😄

This course is not about building an app from scratch. Rather, you'll start with a pre-made app and integrate various techniques and tools to get it production-ready. Later, you'll be able to apply the same techniques to your own projects.

Is it right for you?
