The shortened version of in-between animation is tween animation. The start and endpoints of an animation must be specified in tween animation. Using this method, the animation can begin at the beginning and can progress through a series of values until it reaches the endpoint. Transition speed and duration are also determined by using the tween animation. Calculating the transition from the beginning to the end will be easier with the widget framework.

The pubspec.yaml file, also known as 'pubspec', is a file that is included when you create a Flutter project and is located at the top of the project tree. This file contains information about the dependencies like packages and their versions, fonts, etc., that a project requires. It makes sure that the next time you build the project, you will get the same package version. Additionally, you can set constraints for the app. During working with the Flutter project, this configuration file of the project will be required a lot. This specification is written in YAML, which can be read by humans.
The following are included in this file:
* General project settings, like name of the project, version, description, etc.
* Dependencies within a project.
* The assets of the project (e.g., images, audio, etc.).

Keys are used in Flutter as identifiers for widgets, elements, and semantic nodes. GlobalKeys and LocalKeys are the subclasses of Key. Within the widget tree, keys are responsible for preserving the state of modified widgets. With keys, you can also reorganize and modify collections of widgets that have an equivalent type and defined state. The primary use of keys is to modify a widget tree that contains stateful widgets, not to modify a tree that is totally composed of stateless widgets.

A package is a group of similar types of classes, interfaces, and sub-packages. The packages and plugins help us to build the app without having to develop everything from packages. In Flutter, it allows you to import new widgets or functionality into the app. The packages and plugins have a very small distinction. Generally, packages are the new components or the code written in dart languages, whereas plugins allow more functionality on the device by using the native code. In the DartPub, packages and plugins are both referred to as packages.

main(): This function starts the program. Flutter does not allow us to write any program without the main() function.
runApp(): Using runApp(), you are able to return the widgets that are connected to the screen as a root of the widget tree that will be rendered on the screen. This function is called in the main function, which is the driver of the app.

Flutter uses only the canvas of the native platform and draws the UI and all the components from scratch. All the UI elements look the same as native ones. This mainly reduces the burden of time for converting through some language to the native one and speeds up the UI rendering time. As a result, the UI performance is remarkably high

When compiling a Flutter web application, the JavaScript bundle is generated by the dart2js compiler. A release build has the highest level of optimization, which includes tree shaking your code. Tree shaking is the process of eliminating dead code, by only including code that is guaranteed to be executed. This means that you do not need to worry about the size of your app’s included libraries because unused classes or functions are excluded from the compiled JavaScript bundle.

Creating a flutter app is simple. As a result, the developer must be familiar with basic programming and object-oriented coding.
The following are the steps to follow while writing a flutter app;
Creating the starter flutter app– the developer should create a simple templated flutter app.
Apply an external package– in this category, the developer should start using an open-source package known as english_words. This package has some utility functions and thousands of English words.
Addition of a stateful widget– This step is important, because, it helps in maintaining state that might change during the lifetime of the widget.
Creation of an infinite scrolling ListView– This stage involves the expansion of RandomWordState which helps in generating and displaying a list of word pairings.
Lastly, profile runs– After finishing, it is important to analyze the performance of the created app.

Yes, it is a good solution business-wise. There are several factors that inflict drastic value for a business. For example, performance and stability of a platform, a wide talent pool, and room for further development.
As a result, any problems in the platform related to the above-mentioned aspects ignite the occurrence of risks which in turn results in an indirect or direct financial loss to the company.
It is from this perspective, that flutters come in handy, because of the following reasons;
* Ease of finding engineers who can professionally use Flutter.
* Because of Fuchsia OS created by Google, product development problems are reduced while using flutter.
* Ease of integration since there are several companies using Flutter.

Staggered animation utilizes few animation items to include consecutive or covering animations. An animation controller is used to control all the animations. You can use multiple animation objects to create staggered animations and each animation object specifies the animation during the interval. It is a straightforward approach to create visual changes in a series of operations rather than all at once.

A widget is either stateless or stateful in flutter. Let's understand each of them.
>> Stateful Widget - If a widget can change with the user interaction then it is a stateful widget. It is dynamic for example, it can change its appearance when it receives data or in response to events triggered by user interactions. Radio, Checkbox, slider are examples of stateful widgets.
>> Stateless Widget - It never changes with the user interaction. Stateless widgets examples include IconButton, Icon, Text etc.

Flutter is built using C, C++, Skia - 2D rendering engine and Dart (a modern, concise, object-oriented language).
Posted Date:- 2021-10-28 04:07:31
The Flutter Engine's C, C++ code is compiled with LLVM (low level virtual machine - a compiling technology). The Dart code of both the SDK's and yours are compiled by AOT (ahead-of-time) into a native, ARM library. That ARM library is included in "runner" iOS project and the whole code base is built into an iOS App Store Package file .ipa. When the app launched, the app loads the flutter library. Any input or event handling, rendering and so on, are delegated to the compiled code of flutter and app. It is similar to working process of many game engines.
Debug mode works same as for Android app.

Android's NDK compiles the flutter engine's C,C++ code. The AOT (ahead-of-time) compiler compiles the Dart code of both (SDK's and your) into native, ARM, and x86 libraries. These libraries are added in a "runner" android project and the whole thing or artefact is built into an Android application package file .apk. The app loads the flutter library on launching of it. Any input or event handling, rendering and so on, are delegated to the compiled code of flutter and app. It is similar to working process of many game engines.
During debug mode, A VM (Virtual Machine) runs flutter code in order to enable hot stateful reload feature. When you run app in debug mode you will see a "debug" banner in top right corner of app. It reminds you that performance is not the characteristic of completed release app.

Hot reload means injecting the updated source code files into running Dart VM (Virtual Machine). Hot reload process does not add only new classes but it also adds properties, fields and methods to existing classes, and changes existing functions.
Hot restart works by resetting the app's current state to the app's initial state.

Flutter has certain limitations as:
1. Lack of third party libraries - Flutter has less number of third party libraries but it's increasing with the time.
2. Larger release size - Flutter frustrates developers when release size is not as per their expectations.
3. Dart is a good Object-oriented programming language but it lacks when compared with others like C# (C-Sharp), JavaScript etc.
4. iOS developers always think before choosing a flutter framework to develop the app for apple devices as it's developed by Google so android issues are fixed faster but issues for apple devices take much time.

Two types of widgets present in the Flutter are stateless and stateful.
The stateless widgets don’t store any values which will change in the future. The stateless widgets don’t store any state. Icon, text widgets are some examples of stateless widgets.
The stateful widgets have a state object to keep track of all the changes and updates happening in the UI. These widgets are immutable but the state object is used to keep track of the changes. Checkbox and image are some of the examples of stateful widgets.

Widgets are high-level objects in the Flutter that is used to describe any part of a UI of the application. Widgets are used to build the UI of your application. They describe the view information such as their configuration, and state. The widgets are displayed in a hierarchical order to be displayed onto the screen. Text, Buttons, checkboxes, scroll, images, and every other UI component in the Flutter is a widget.
