Module 5: Mobile Development with Flutter
Mobile app development has become an essential skill in today's technology-driven world. This learning journey is focused on mobile app development with Flutter and is divided into two tracks. The first track covers the fundamentals of Dart programming and the Flutter framework. It starts with an introduction to Flutter and Dart programming language and covers using variables, collections, functions, classes, and objects.

The track then delves into exploring different layouts, including implementing basic Flutter layouts, stateful widgets, stacks, lists, and grids, and building an application using layouts and navigation.

The second track focuses on building mobile apps with Flutter, including creating forms, detecting, and handling gestures, implementing and configuring animations, integrating Flutter with backends using HTTP requests, persisting data on the local device, and integrating with Google Firebase. Additionally, it covers testing and debugging techniques for Flutter apps.
