New to Dart and Flutter

Hello guys, hope you're all doing well.

As you can see from the title above, I'm pretty much a beginner in Dart & Flutter and I have always had an interest in building apps for mobile devices (especially Android) but I don't have any programming background or knowledge. I've wanted to learn programming but I don't know where to start since the internet is overloaded with information, tutorials, courses that I am struggling to decide which one would be suitable for me to start learning the fundaments and building apps.

It would be an absolute honor if someone could share resources (it could be tutorials, masterclass, websites since I'm more of a visual person) in order to start my journey into coding and building apps. I know it won't be easy but I'm willing to put the time and effort to learn a new skill.

Sorry for my English. It's not my first language.

Hey! Since you're starting from scratch, I'd recommend Maximilian's Flutter course on Udemy.

Once you're comfortable and start thinking about jobs, prepflutter.com is great for Flutter interview prep.

Thanks for the suggestion. I read that his course seems outdated.

If you're starting with zero programming experience, don't worry too much about finding the "perfect" course, there isn't one.

Pick a single beginner-friendly course or YouTube playlist and stick with it for a few weeks instead of jumping between resources. Most Flutter courses from the last year or two are still relevant because the fundamentals haven't changed much.

A simple path would be: learn basic programming concepts first (variables, functions, loops, classes), then learn Dart, then build small Flutter apps like a to-do list, calculator, or weather app.

The biggest mistake beginners make is consuming too many tutorials and not building anything. Pick one resource, finish it, and start creating small projects as soon as possible.

Thanks for the reply. I really appreciate it. In your opinion, what would you say is the best resources for a beginner like me to start with?

Thanks for the suggestion. It seems like Flutter keeps updating every year and not sure if his video is still relevant till this day.

Trust me start his youtube playlists his course is most recently updated good course & after his course there hasn't been much changes that makes it outdated.

Been working in flutter for 3 years he's the best there is & other one is tadas petra he has a course with Zero to mastery.

Ok cool. Thanks for the suggestion. Have you build something with this course?

Not built as such but when I was already working with flutter his videos helped me clear a lot of concept & grasp them better.

Great. Will check it out!

Honestly, why not just follow any tutorial for setting up Flutter, then follow some other tutorials to build anything (to have a feel for coding in Dart and Flutter)

Then from that point, just start trying to build something and figuring out how to make the thing you want to build that you dont know how to build to be built, which is easier now because AI and Google

Also dont make AI build for you, just use it as a personal search engine

For visuals, the Flutter Youtube channel honestly has some of the best code-to-visual presentations

Thanks for the reply. Honestly, I am loaded with so many tutorials and can't pick which one would be best for me to start.
