Flutter Apprentice
Build for both iOS and Android with Flutter! Flutter is a new and exciting software development toolkit that lets you target multiple platforms at once, so you can build apps for iOS, Android and even web and desktop, all from a single codebase. Similar to modern web technologies, Flutter uses a declarative approach to UI development. You can take advantage of “hot reload” of new code while developing, and your apps will perform at native speed thanks to Flutter’s custom rendering engine. It’s been the dream of mobile developers for years to find a cross-platform tool that lets you build for both iOS and Android without having to write and maintain two separate codebases. With Flutter and Flutter Apprentice, you can achieve that dream!

Data Structures & Algorithms in Dart
Perhaps you’ve heard about Big O notation, stacks and queues, or bubble sort and quicksort. You’d like to learn more, but it’s hard to find any good examples and explanations that use your favorite programming language, Dart. Data Structures & Algorithms in Dart is here to help with in-depth explanations, copious illustrations, and step-by-step examples. The book begins by reviewing fundamental data structures like lists and maps and then goes on to teach you how to build other important structures from scratch, including stacks, linked lists, queues, trees and graphs. From there you’ll use these data structures to understand and write many different traversal, searching and sorting algorithms. All along the way, you’ll learn how to analyze the efficiency of your code and express that efficiency using Big O notation.
