I have just published my first actual tutorial ever ๐คฉ It's about how to create an animated search bar with a custom shaped background as in my app Bunny Search ๐ฐ๐
While I was researching how Flutter rendering actually works, I've collected a list of videos & posts on the topic that I'd like to share, cause they really helped me ๐งต
I'll probably add more to this thread as I check them & if you have some great resources too, please share ๐ค
You shouldโve seen my non-stop smiling face yesterday when I learned that my talk was accepted ๐ฅน
@FlutterconEU
was already super exciting to me, but now itโs next level exciting ๐ See you there! ๐
Back to basics! Data structures are an important tool in your developer toolbox.
In my new article series, I want to help you to acquire these tools :)
Let's start with the Set ๐
The day has come, Iโm now officially closer to 30 than to 20 ๐๐พ
For the last year the Flutter community has played an important role in my life and Iโm happy to be a part of it ๐ซถ๐
Iโm so excited to share this article that I wrote for the
@codemagicio
blog ๐ I hope you will find it useful, especially if youโre at the beginning of your Flutter journey ๐ค
Changed my dev career (sorry Android!), changed my life basically ๐ฅน Gave me so many friends all around the world, which are beyond just Flutter itself. Made me a part of the best tech community ๐
My new article is out! Iโve compiled my experience in doing Flutter apps code audit into a guide ๐
Posting to the new
@ChiliLabs
blog for the first time! We donโt have stats yet, so your feedback is appreciated ๐
What would you add to this guide? ๐
Flutter Academy by
@ChiliLabs
Class
#1
has graduated! ๐๐ It was a completely crazy awesome new experience for me, and my students are amazing and hard working and have a bright blue (๐๐ฉต) future ahead of them ๐๐ฅน
Are you a
#flutter
developer struggling with errors related to BuildContext? Don't understand how it works & avoid using it? Then I have some things that can help you ๐๐
Finally after 2 months of waiting and borrowing my husbandโs computer/trying not to go insane with an ipad, Iโve got my new baby ๐ There is a small catch though with the keyboard, see if you can spot it ๐๐คฆ๐ฝโโ๏ธ
Look what arrived today from
@GoogleDevExpert
๐ฅน๐ Now I have a place for all of my favourite pins from all of the awesome community events ๐ซถ๐ฝ
And what a coincidence, right on my birthday ๐๐ฅณ
Look who arrived today, just in time to watch
@FlutterVikings
with me ๐คฉ
Thank you for organizing the meeting of Dash and Dasha to
@nlycskn
and
@PrzemekPardel
๐ฅบ๐๐๐๐ฆ
Iโm so excited for Dart 3, so many awesome features arriving ๐คฉ For everyday work records, patterns & sealed classes have been on my wish list for a while ๐ฅน
As someone who has worked with 20+ production codebases, I know a thing or two about why quality matters: for teams, clients and users. Considering how many great topics were at the same time, I was surprised to see people sitting on the ground ๐ Thank you to all attendees ๐
Iโve stalked
@RevenueCat
at
@FlutterconEU
enough to get these socks and I think I can leave the conference already, my goal is complete here ๐๐ป
Gathered my impressions about the
@FlutterVikings
conference in a small blog post ๐คฉ
Once again, thanks to everyone for this fantastic experience and for tons of inspiration ๐
Always so happy to spend some quality time with
@AnnaLeushchenko
around the world, this time in Stockholm for
@FlutterNFriends
๐ Friends indeed! ๐ซถ

is over, but we still have one little adventure left! Starting our Pacific Coast Highway trip from Santa Cruz with FPA (Flutter Party Association ๐๐)

๐งต๐ Flutter tip: how to decide whether to use a particular package?
Before deciding to depend on someone elseโs code, I think itโs important to evaluate that dependency. Here are some simple metrics that I look at before adding it to my pubspec ๐
It was an honour to give a talk with the meme lord and an amazing professional

Sorry fam, Flutter content is on pause, FPA travel content is on play ๐
A couple of years ago I decided to give Twitter a chance for a single reason: interact with the Flutter ๐ community
Do I even need to mention that my life has never been the same since ๐ And so honoured that today 5k of you think that itโs worth it to have me in your feed ๐๐ซถ๐ฝ
First time as a co-host! Fun experience and enormous gratitude to everyone, who made this fantastic event
@FlutteristasCon
happen! So proud of

This photo warms my heart. Thank you Flutter for bringing these wonderful women into my life and thank you

Not a single day without Flutter state management arguments on Twitter ๐ Already preparing for the feedback Iโm gonna get once my book is published and chapters about state management (and probably other architectural decisions) are read ๐ ๐ฟ
Excitement aside, the closer Iโm to the conference, the more nervous I get. This will be my first time speaking at an actual offline conference and my brain is just making up all of these scenarios of what can go wrong ๐
Finally received my super cute flutter swag for
#FlutterFestival
๐ป
It arrived 2 days after I went travelling for a month, so it was waiting for my return ๐
Was talking to grandma on the phone today, told her about my Berlin adventures. Her reaction was โyou gave a talk in ENGLISH?!โ ๐
It makes me extra proud of all the people who spoke in front of hundreds of listeners in a non-native language! ๐
Is this my first ever iPhone, after years of being a native android dev & user? It is! ๐ Will I love it? Will I hate it? Should I tap into native iOS dev now too? ๐
P.S. - Lifehack to get your new iPhone sooner: don't order the purple one ๐
And with the last stop in Las Vegas itโs a wrap for the FPA (Flutter Party Association) West Coast trip! We planned to take this photo in the evening, but ended up doing it at sunrise, on our way from casino to the airport ๐๐

The best confirmation that Flutter is growing in popularity... There is a Flutter Developer position available in my home city, which is small (~80k, in reality probably less). I'm happy, but also surprised ๐๐
...and the
#ftcon23
speaker list continues with
@dariadroid
! ๐ฃ
In this talk, Orlova will discuss how to audit the
#Flutter
#codebase
from various perspectives, including code quality, maintainability, performance, production readiness, security, & more.
Bear with us just a little more ๐ Our West Coast trip is coming to an end, but we still have a couple of stops left, and today it was a hike up to the Hollywood sign, both front and back view ๐๐โญ๏ธ
@esrakadah
@spydon
Is that... a Medium blog post from me? ๐ฒ A small recap of what I learned while working on Flutter Academy, as well as awesome events like FlutterCon & Google I/O Connect ๐ P.S. Does anyone even remember "Daria's Flutter diaries"? ๐
My current morning read and this book is sooo good, ๐ฏ recommend to every developer.
What are your fave or the ones you really want to read CS books? ๐
My vacation is coming to an end, it was a fantastic recharge for the body and mind, without work Slack and absolutely minimal Twitter and LinkedIn interaction ๐
That being said:
1) What did I miss? ๐คช
2) My talk from FlutterCon is available here: ๐
Just tried out
@Firebase
automated tester for the first time, it looks very promising, especially for indie devs, where we don't have QA teams ๐ And a useful side effect: generate screenshots for the stores ๐
I was getting furious at my app not reporting crashes, until I realised I was crashing on iPhone, but checking Crashlytics for Android ๐
Gotta stop coding for today, I guess ๐
Not gonna cry, Iโm not gonna cryโฆ ๐๐ฅฒ Today is the day I remove ๐ถ๏ธ from my name. Those 6 years were a crazy ride, so many things have happened and I will forever have

Thank you

for the cozy event ๐ Itโs always a pleasure to share my
