Hey, Bryan here. I share videos that help web developers up their development skills!
Today I'll be sharing the sixth part of a News Feed mobile application that we will build using Dart and Flutter. This is going to be a mobile application that runs on both Android and IOS, and we will be using a Django backend server which we send API requests to. We won't be writing the code for the Django backend server, instead I already wrote that code, and will show you how to clone the server from GitHub and get it running on your local environment. The main focus of this tutorial series will be on making a mobile application using Dart and Flutter which is why I won't be writing the code for the Django backend server in this tutorial series.
Here is an overview of the things you will learn in this tutorial project:
1. You will learn how to get up and running with Dart and Flutter.
2. You will learn how to create Widgets in Dart and Flutter.
3. You will learn how to make API requests to a backend server, and in particular how to also make these requests to a backend server running on your local machine.
4. You will learn how to make stateful and stateless components.
5. You will learn how to have something organized in a List and display it onto the screen.
6. And you will learn how to make a mobile app, holy cow!.
In this part, I will be be writing code for styling the posts. Each post will have a title, an image url, content, and a user. In this video we will be utilizing those pieces of data to make nice looking cards that will represent the posts. We will see how to add some styling to a Text widget, and how to do things like display an image onto the screen, and in particular an image that we retrieve from our backend Django server.
