Description

Flutter is a cross-platform user interface (UI) toolkit that enables developers to create beautiful native applications for mobile, desktop, and the web with a single codebase. State management in Flutter is one of the most crucial and complex topics within Flutter, with a wide array of approaches available that can make it easy to get lost due to information overload. Managing State in Flutter Pragmatically is a definitive guide to starting out with Flutter and learning about state management, helping developers with some experience of state management to choose the most appropriate solutions and techniques to use. The book takes a hands-on approach and begins by covering the basics of Flutter state management before exploring how to build and manipulate a shopping cart app using popular approaches such as BLoC/Cubit, Provider, MobX, and Riverpod. Throughout the book, you'll also learn how to adopt approaches from React such as Redux and all its types. By the end of this Flutter book, you'll have gained a holistic view of all the state management approaches in Flutter, and learned which approach is the best solution for managing state in your app development journey.

The text is simple and easy to comprehend. I've only begun reading the book and I must say that my initial impressions have been good. The fact that the author has managed to cover a wide range of popular state management techniques, keeping it clear and condensed, is a testament to his skills. Great material for beginners and those who want to brush up on their knowledge. I would, however, like to point out that the Bloc library referenced in the book is slightly outdated, the newer version is much more intuitive and unlike it's arcane predecessor, it doesn't rely on the usage of the asynchronous generator, mapEventToState. I would have also loved to see examples using BlocListeners and BlocConsumers.

4.5 Stars - I've been using Flutter for 1+ years now and wanted to learn about other state management approaches. The introduction to the various packages was excellent. Without a significant time effort, I was able to understand the basic differences in the techniques. Reviewing these sections later as a reference was also going to work pretty well.Unfortunately, the depth of this coverage here and later in the examples was still a bit too basic for the real world. This is a bit disappointing as the book is covering this very topic. I was very happy to see the content towards the end about how to make choices between which state management to use. It was helpful, but a bit too casual and too light for my preferences. It was a very short section which was disappointing as its the climax of the book.I would suggest this book if you wanted to gain a fair amount of technical understanding of each of the state management approaches. Or, if you are unsure of which approach to use, this will start you along the way. However, once you make that decision, you will mostly likely need another state management book or reference to show you how best to go about it.

This is a great explanation on how state management has evolved in Flutter. Once you learn the Dart language this book is essential to advance to the next level in Flutter development I thought it was well written as well.

The author has managed to keep the book crisp and at the same time, tackle all the topics on state management in a logical order with increasing difficulty. I primarily rely on raw Streams and Change/ValueNotifiers to manage my state, though the author covers all of the state management topics in great detail, I’m still not convinced yet as to how they’re better than my current approach. I would have loved to see case studies on the subject comparing different methods for the same problem. The latest version of BLoC, which isn't mentioned in the book, is a lot more cleaner, the one used in the book will soon become deprecated and I hope to see a revised edition with that update.I would definitely recommend this book if you’re a beginner trying to learn the fundamentals.
