Overview of this book

Flutter is a modern reactive mobile framework that removes a lot of the complexity found in building native mobile apps for iOS and Android. With Flutter, developers can now build fast and native mobile apps from a single codebase. This book is packed with 11 projects that will help you build your own mobile applications using Flutter. It begins with an introduction to Dart programming and explains how it can be used with the Flutter SDK to customize mobile apps. Each chapter contains instructions on how to build an independent app from scratch, and each project focuses on important Flutter features.From building Flutter Widgets and applying animations to using databases (SQLite and sembast) and Firebase, you'll build on your knowledge through the chapters. As you progress, you’ll learn how to connect to remote services, integrate maps, and even use Flare to create apps and games in Flutter. Gradually, you’ll be able to create apps and games that are ready to be published on the Google Play Store and the App Store. In the concluding chapters, you’ll learn how to use the BLoC pattern and various best practices related to creating enterprise apps with Flutter. By the end of this book, you will have the skills you need to write and deliver fully functional mobile apps using Flutter.

Publishing a Flutter app to a web server

Now that our web app is complete, you might wonder how to publish it to a web server. At this time, browsers only support HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, so you cannot just publish your code to a web server and expect it to run on a browser as we did during the debug process.

Fortunately, the support for building web apps in Flutter includes a tool to transform your Flutter code into JavaScript. From the command-line interface on your development machine, just run the following command:

flutter build web 

Running this command will create the \build\web folder in your app directory. If you open it, you should see an index.html file, which is the home page of your web app.

When you build a web release version, the framework will minify and perform obfuscation on your files. For more information about the process, see https://flutter.dev/docs/deployment...
