Flutter Fast Implementation: Forms Building, and Sign Up Page Widgets

Here is the UI that we want to build ultimately in this blog.

Required Flutter packages

Open pubspec.yaml and add these packages under dependencies:

dependencies:
  flutter:
    sdk: flutter
  # add these packages in your flutter project first
  google_fonts:
  shared_preferences:
  intl:
  sign_button:

Google Fonts is used for custom fonts. Shared Preferences, this package is used for storing small data such as current_theme_mode, is_user_logged_in, etc. Intl is widely used to convert DateTime to our desired date string. The Sign_button package is used to design social media login buttons with proper design guidelines.

Import Necessary Assets

To use local assets, we must add this line to the pubspec.yaml: assets:

flutter:
  uses-material-design: true  
# add this line and create a new folder named assets and inside the folder, create another folder named images
  assets:
    - assets/images/

I have saved a .gif image named 'boring.gif' inside the folder named 'images.' The link to the file is HERE.

Import dart files to main.dart

For the project, we need these importations inside the main.dart file:

// ignore_for_file: prefer_const_constructors
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:google_fonts/google_fonts.dart';
import 'package:intl/intl.dart';
import 'package:http/http.dart' as http;
import 'dart:convert';
import 'package:sign_button/sign_button.dart';

Widgets we need to use

The list of widgets we will use:

  1. HomePage

    1. DropdownButtonFormField

    2. TextFormField

    3. showDatePicker()

    4. ElevatedButton

    5. Others: Container, Column, Material, Scaffold, Center, Row, Icon, Text, BoxDecoration, Navigator.push(), SizedBox, Padding, SingleChildListView, Flexible

  2. ThankYouPage

    1. Image.asset

    2. Text

    3. Scaffold

Full main.dart code

// ignore_for_file: prefer_const_constructors

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:google_fonts/google_fonts.dart';
import 'package:intl/intl.dart';
import 'package:http/http.dart' as http;
