#HumpDayQandA
This post is the first in a series of post detailing the events of #HumpDayQandA.
Many people from the #FlutterCommunity joined us to talk and ask questions about Flutter. This week, we turned #HumpDayQandA into a two-day event. Wednesday was reserved for asking questions and discussion while Thursday, @slightfoot lived coded an app.
This week we were joined by two guests from the Flutter team. Filip Hráček and Matt Carrol both joined and discussed various aspects of Flutter. Some of the topics talked about are scoped model and it's simplicity for beginners, RXVMS, BLOC, Firebase for Flutter including the current project by member of the community, Razvan Lung. Also discussed was Flutter's new Android View widget and embedding Android views in Flutter.
