Adding Interactivity in Your Flutter App

Explore Flutter by building a practical and interactive "Average Speed Calculator" app, learning core Flutter concepts along the way, including how to use Stateful Widgets.

Course Description

In this course you'll learn how to build a Flutter app from scratch, gaining valuable insights into key concepts such as state management, user input handling, and UI design. As you develop this app step by step, you’ll handle text input, create custom dropdown menus, and even perform calculations using user provided data. You’ll then see how to format and present data to the user. By the end of this course, you’ll have a functional app that calculates average speed in metric and imperial units.
