Out Teaching Flutter Better Than Google Developer Experts

The object of this flutter app design and app development game is to get an app that performs like a native app and is better designed than a native app. In fact, it is what gets us hired.

The problem is with Google running 3 different SDK teams developing 3 different front-ends, the holes in the Material Design spec in the Flutter SDK are filled by 3rd party libraries. And those 3rd party libraries are not covered by the flutter docs, the Google IO conference, or Google’s Flutter developer experts (GDE’s).

Thus, my teaching path to beat the GDE’s at their game and give you more app design power is to cover a curated list of 3rd party libraries that make your app design better than native.Currently there is one Flutter GDE with an audience of 90,000 devs viewing their tutorials. Time to out-class and beat that number to the ground!

Let me give you an example using material design dynamic color.

Native Material Design Dynamic Color

Native Android Material Design 3 support includes some default color schemes and a way to support deriving color input from images to derive a content color scheme.In Android 12 and Android 13 introduced dynamic color with the wallpaper color as an input color to the color scheme.
