Abstract

We’ve made great progress so far! You now know what Flutter is all about. You’re well-versed in how the development and debugging process works. You know why we use widgets and are pretty darn familiar with the value widgets from the last chapter. Heck, you can even create your own stateless widgets. But we’re still missing a major fundamental feature: event handling.

Notes

  1. 1.

    In addition to the events we’ve listed, many of these gestures have advanced events for ∗Start, ∗End, ∗Cancel, ∗Up, and/or a ∗Down. These are a lot to take in but can be useful, so go here to read up on all of them: http://bit.ly/FlutterGestures

  2. 2.

    For more information on Futures, async, and await, take a look at Chapter 10: Your Flutter app can work with files.
