FlutterFlow is a low-code builder for native apps, bringing design and development into one tool. With drag-and-drop functionality, you can build pixel-perfect UIs and easily connect your app to live data via Firebase or APIs. Plus, you can add advanced features like push notifications, payments, animations, and more. Whether you build your own custom widgets or write custom code, FlutterFlow makes it easy to bring your app ideas to life.

This is excellent. These videos are really good. It's these kind of things that can be very frustrating and difficult to understand. More of this please - thanks!

So, as a design question... why would you ever set a specifically designed max value (in terms of pixels)? Wouldn't it basically always be better to set the "sizes" of things by percentages, so they would always be the same relative size, no matter what screen size or orientation of the screen a user was using?

very good 👍 thank you. please keep these tutorials coming regularly. it's like having a teacher that keeps guiding you as you're working

[@user-od8mo1fq9m]

really helpful video with clear principles

[@blueli6351]

Hello. I would like to understand why would you not implemnet proprty like max-width or min-width? When doing web development, width: 100% & max-width is usually needed to avoid overflow issue. Is it something not really needed when doing app? Thanks

Its very interesting to watch the tutorial but advertisements are breaking the flow. FlutterFlow should not let the ads appear while the video is already playing. Ads are acceptable at the very start or end of the video.

Can we install a package like TFLite into the Flutterflow. Could you make some tutorials about this?

[@user-bv3jh8jw9n]

Ok cannot

[@jd5787]

Are these the same in css?

[@ahmedjawad7350]

thanks, q. pls. how to lock or disable a widget like a checkbox? I did not find that in docs.

[@RR-et6zp]

so parent sets alignment/position and child sets sizing?

[@kyleaustin2728]

I feel compelled to state that if both the Column and Container want to be Infinite, that's not a "contradiction" It's an undefined error, infinity does not exist. This is only relevant if you care about the fundamental nature of truth. Lol. Everything else is great, thanks!

[@hughgallagher]

great video... but does FF really need to make a few $ on the side by having ads interrupting the videos every few minutes? It's extremely annoying... and for some reason the number of ads displayed in these videos seems to be more than usual... FF... please just remove ads from you videos

[@AmalRafeeq]

Ugh, maybe try getting KZbin premium? They are doing an amazing job with these videos btw

[@matthiaslindner9789]

this is actually outdated, this video explains layouting much better: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYLLdKWeZZWrn6s
