Valorant Guide app: a small demo application to demonstrate Flutter application tech-stacks

Valorant Guide


Design

Design by: Malik Abimanyu

App

Valorant Guide app is a small demo application to demonstrate Flutter application tech-stacks with a MobX and Provider. I don’t have design file so just tried to do what I see. It’s still under development and open for PR.

Libraries & Tools Used

Architecture

I used MobX and Provider Boilerplate Library. The Boilerplate contains the minimal implementation required to create a new library or project. The repository code is preloaded with some basic components like basic app architecture, app theme, constants and required dependencies to create a new project. By using boiler plate code as standard initializer, we can have same patterns in all the projects that will inherit it. This will also help in reducing setup & development time by allowing you to use same code pattern and avoid re-writing from scratch.

Folder Structure

Here is the core folder structure which flutter provides.

flutter-app/
|- android
|- build
|- ios
|- lib
|- test

Here is the folder structure we have been using in this project

lib/
|- constants/
|- data/
|- stores/
|- ui/
|- utils/
|- widgets/
|- main.dart
|- routes.dart

Now, lets dive into the lib folder which has the main code for the application.

1- constants - All the application level constants are defined in this directory with-in their respective files. This directory contains the constants for `theme`, `dimentions`, `api endpoints`, `preferences` and `strings`.
2- data - Contains the data layer of your project, includes directories for local, network and shared pref/cache.
3- stores - Contains store(s) for state-management of your application, to connect the reactive data of your application with the UI. 
4- ui — Contains all the ui of your project, contains sub directory for each screen.
5- util — Contains the utilities/common functions of your application.
6- widgets — Contains the common widgets for your applications. For example, Button, TextField etc.
7- routes.dart — This file contains all the routes for your application.
8- main.dart - This is the starting point of the application. All the application level configurations are defined in this file i.e, theme, routes, title, orientation etc.

Constants

This directory contains all the application level constants. A separate file is created for each type as shown in example below:

constants/
|- app_theme.dart
|- dimens.dart
|- endpoints.dart
|- preferences.dart
|- strings.dart

Open API

Valorant Agents uses the Valorant-api for required data.
Valorant-api provides an extensive API containing data of most in-game items, assets and more!

Tasks

  • Make HomePage items background color dynamic

  • Get more data from API and add more pages

  • Localization

  • Widget Testing
