Learning objectives
The objectives of this module are:
In terms of theoretical knowledge:
- Provide students with necessary knowledges to understand the logic behind mobile app development.
In terms of practical skills:
- Equip students with essential skills to develop high-quality interactive mobile apps for iOS and Android devices using Flutter framework.
At the end of the course, students will be able to:
In terms of theoretical knowledge:
- List the different mobile OS/platforms (Android, iOS, etc.) and development approaches.
- Discuss the differences among development approaches, tools and frameworks (e.g. Native, Cross-Platform, Android Studio, VS Code, Flutter, etc.).
- Identify the different basic concepts related to the development of mobile apps with Flutter framework (widgets, state, SDK, API, etc.).
- Show the usefulness of each concept.
- Interpret the different characteristics of each concept in comparison to other concepts.
In terms of practical skills:
- Illustrate each concept related to the development of mobile apps with Flutter.
- Use an IDE like Android Studio and Visual code to create/reproduce attractive and responsive user interface using basic concepts of Flutter.
- Implement basic functionalities such as navigation, storage, etc.
- Integrate a third-party API (e.g. remote storage, geolocation, etc.) to enrich the app functionality.
- Employ design patterns (MVC, Blocs, etc.) to organize and structure the application code to make it reusable and extensible.
- Test the code of a mobile app on different platforms using emulators/simulators or real devices.
In terms of soft skills:
- Plan an entire project to design a mobile application based on a specification.
- Extend the learned skills to create their own interfaces and to develop more complex mobile apps.
- Analyse the requirements and the specifications of a mobile application project to select the appropriate architecture (Development approach, storage method, API, Design Pattern method, etc.).
- Evaluate and judge the quality, the performance and the efficiency of any mobile app.
- Criticize the design and ergonomics of an existing mobile application.
- Propose potential improvements in performance and UI of a mobile application based on the principles of mobile design.
