Wrox Press Beginning Flutter: A Hands On Guide to App Development

Poorly written, with some suspicious five-star reviews
Quite simply, not a good book, with some suspicious, five-star, ratings on Amazon. If the reviewers’ names are not visible, or if the reviewers have reviewed a handful (or less) of items, then I suggest taking ratings with a pinch of salt. I found it so poor that I stopped reading this book after four chapters, and will be buying a different book about Flutter instead.In the “Who this book is for” section, this book says “This book is written with the assumption of having no prior programming, Flutter, or Dart experience”. Well, I have more than 35 years hands-on development experience, including multiple programming languages, operating systems, platforms and frameworks. I can work out what the text of this book is trying to say, although it’s not always easy. There is absolutely no way that would be true of somebody with no (or limited) prior programming experience. Even with my extensive and relevant experience, I find trying to read this book to glean any useful information more effort than it is worth, which is why I won’t be finishing it and will be finding an alternative book about Flutter to read instead.Poorly structured, poorly worded, poorly formatted (hyphenating code, mid-word, is not a good start) and poorly edited, the best thing I can find to say about this book is that the paper is non-reflective and not bright white, so ideal for reading in bright sunshine. That might sound harsh, but this really is a book that will be heading to the charity shop unfinished. Disappointing.

Good technical overview
Provides a good technical overview of flutter and dart as well as good design practices. You will need other resources if you need to go deeper in developing professional apps.
