Thinking & coding: building up my landingpage.

In this code session I broadly built the landing page. Everything still with the standard themes and fonts. I also exported the necessary image from Figma to the assetsmap in my flutter project. The great thing about Figma is that you can use the images where you have put time to adjust them in the prototype, straight from the box in Flutter. With the adjustments you made in Figma design.










As you can see from the two images we are not there yet, but the basic widget tree has been built. Only the following properties must be introduced from the prototype. Distances, colors, font, etc.



The second major part of this session I have devoted to centralizing all constant data. Such that the complete app can be adapted to the wishes of the customer in 1 dart file. As they say it so beautifully in Flutter. A dedicated constants library, or did I say this just now hahaha.


The next post will be about adapting or overriding the thema to my prototype specs.

Do, believe and be happy,


Stefaan

Thinking & coding: Linking Firebase to my Flutter App. Watch out for a important detail.

Image
The last programming session was a leap in the dark. For the first time I linked a FireBase project to an app. On the Firebase website you have to make sure you use the explanation for "frameworks", below that you will find the installation guide for Flutter framwork. The complete installation, including the dependencies and such, is well described. However, I got a whole series of error messages. My heart sank for a moment. I didn't understand any of the error messages. All I could tell from the error messages is that the error probably occurred somewhere in the "app / build.gradle". I started reading this file and there I saw the minumum SDK level. And then the light was turned on in my dark tunnel of challenges. Long live Youtube. I had watched a video by Andy Julow prior to my programming session. And in the video, he warned about the following. The mininmum android SDK version is at 16. The version must be at least 21. And indeed, when I changed this settin

Software developer yes, but where to begin?

The decision has been made  and I am going for a career as an SE, what now?  What are we going to program and how do we get started?  Whe start immediately with two very difficult questions.  How are we going to answer these? What do I want to achieve with a career change?  Freedom and being creative.  Those are my conditions that are my priorities. From this I can already rule out the first option of industrial programming.  Because then I have to go to factories to do programming.  So no freedom.  So a big no no!  We go for independent programming.  Freedom guaranteed! But what are we going to program?   Where can I use my creativity?  Where can I start using the other hemisphere of my brain.  So in your own creations.  Own designs and ideas.  People talk a lot about apps and I have plenty of ideas for that.  That's what we're going for!  Long live creative freedom. But how do I generate an income from all my ideas? No sooner said than done.  the investigation can begin. Ma

Thinking & coding: Small but important code implementations.

I was still able to employ a short programming session on Sunday. Yes, it will be difficult at this time to quietly program a few hours apart. It is very busy at work and with the "limited" holidays coming up, the family and relatives are also taking a little more time. So I produced a few little things. I also expanded my database with a few documents to test scrolling in the eventScreen. Then I have tested my App in as many situations as possible. Overflow There appears to be an overflow in the Row widgets of the eventCards, If the administrator of the backend enters texts that are too long, there is a problem. Text space is fairly limited in the UI, so I had to make sure that the code catches these errors. The only way I could find that works the way I want it to is to package the Row Widget with a Container Widget. And start using the dimension properties of this widget. Now space is limited and the widget will trim the excess text. Device orientation I also locked the d
