Flutter #25 Repo – Understanding Models and Repositories in Data Layer
In this video, we dive into the Model part of the MVVM architecture in Flutter.
We explain how to structure your project with a data folder inside each feature, containing models and repositories.
You’ll learn:
What Models are in Flutter and why they are essential.
The role of Repositories as a bridge between your app and the data source.
How repositories use models to interact with APIs, databases, or local storage.
Why separating models and repositories improves clean architecture, scalability, and maintainability.
By the end of this video, you’ll clearly understand how models represent data and how repositories handle fetching, saving, and updating data sources while keeping the rest of your app clean and independent.
