With The User In Mind

"Failing to plan is planning to fail" — Now that we've got Flutter installed and our set up ready for development we could jump in headfirst and start coding, or we could do the smarter thing and define what we're going to build. If you still feel uncomfortable with Flutter and Dart (the programming language that powers Flutter)…

With Pixels

From Within

The way it usually starts — I was one-third into my 100 days of Python journey and I just scribbled something into the 34th box that was part of a table that I received and printed. Tracking progress is important. It keeps us motivated and gives us a sense of completion. Box by box, day by…

A Simple Flutter Web App

This is the most simple, yet useful, web app I could come up with — What we'll build? A simple web app called The Background App. It'll be just a canvas colored with a default color. We'll be able to manipulate the color by passing it as a parameter in the URL of the browser. Why is this useful? Sometimes I want to grab screenshots of certain on-screen…

Challenge: A Flutter Website

I recreated my old website in Flutter and learned some things on the way — My website is almost as simple as it gets, having just 2 "pages": home and contact. I quoted pages because there the website is actually a SPA with 2 views. I built it a couple of years ago and used PicoCMS and its out-of-the-box Astral theme for that. It is…
