Flutter Lite Challenge

Flutter is a powerful framework for building cross-platform mobile applications. It offers a wide range of packages and dependencies to enhance the functionality and user experience of your app. However, sometimes less is more. The “Flutter Lite” challenge encourages you to build a Flutter app using a minimal number of external dependencies.

The Challenge

The goal of this challenge is to create a functional Flutter app while using a maximum of 3 external dependencies. This means you should rely primarily on Flutter’s built-in widgets and APIs to build your app.

Requirements

• The app should have at least 3 screens or pages.
• It should incorporate user interaction, such as buttons, forms, or gestures.
• The app should have a clear purpose or solve a specific problem.
• You can use a maximum of 3 external dependencies (packages) in your app.

Scoring Criteria

The submitted projects will be judged based on the following criteria:

1. Functionality: Does the app function as intended without any errors or crashes?
2. User Experience: Is the app intuitive, responsive, and visually appealing?
3. Code Quality: Is the code well-structured, readable, and maintainable?
4. Creativity: How creative and original is the app idea and implementation?
5. Adherence to the Challenge: Does the project adhere to the limit of 3 external dependencies?

Tips and Suggestions

Here are some tips and suggestions to help you succeed in the Flutter Lite challenge:

• Familiarize yourself with Flutter’s built-in widgets and APIs.
• Prioritize the core functionality of your app and avoid unnecessary dependencies.
• Use built-in widgets, like ChangeNotifier, to manage app state.
• Leverage Flutter’s theming capabilities to create a consistent and visually appealing design.
• Optimize your app’s performance by minimizing the use of computationally expensive operations.
