Programming is difficult. Although it’s not so hard to get the Counter app running, becoming an expert at a framework like Flutter and a language like Dart takes time, probably years. So in this article, I’ll give some advice to help you get to the next level.
There are a few categories we’ll look at:
- State management
- App architecture
