flutter-app boilerplate
This repo is a boilerplate to create flutter application easily. It is based on GetX. More info about GetX here. The app has been setup to work with retrofit, dio, json_annotation, intl_utils and shimmer
Getting Started
- Install Flutter SDK. Require Flutter 2.0
- Install plugins in Android Studio
- Clone the repo.
- Run
flutter pub get - Run
flutter pub run intl_utils:generate - Run
flutter pub run build_runner build --delete-conflicting-outputs - Run app.

How to use
Creating a screen.
All screen should be created in the ui/pages folder User the GetX plugin to create new screen.
Example: MovieSection
Logic: movies_section_logic.dart
class MoviesSectionLogic extends GetxController {
final state = MoviesSectionState();
final apiService = Get.find<ApiService>();
void fetchInitialMovies() async {
state.loadMovieStatus.value = LoadStatus.loading;
try {
final result = await apiService.getMovies(page: 1);
state.loadMovieStatus.value = LoadStatus.success;
state.movies.value = result.results;
state.page.value = result.page;
state.totalPages.value = result.totalPages;
} catch (e) {
state.loadMovieStatus.value = LoadStatus.failure;
}
}
...
}
State: movies_section_state.dart
class MoviesSectionState {
final loadMovieStatus = LoadStatus.initial.obs;
final movies = <MovieEntity>[].obs;
final page = 1.obs;
final totalResults = 0.obs;
final totalPages = 0.obs;
...
}
View: movies_section_view.dart
class MoviesSectionPage extends StatefulWidget {...}
class _MoviesSectionPageState extends State<MoviesSectionPage> {
final MoviesSectionLogic logic = Get.put(MoviesSectionLogic());
final MoviesSectionState state = Get.find<MoviesSectionLogic>().state;
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Obx(() {
if (state.loadMovieStatus.value == LoadStatus.loading) {
return _buildLoadingList();
} else if (state.loadMovieStatus.value == LoadStatus.failure) {
return Container();
} else {
return _buildSuccessList(
state.movies,
showLoadingMore: !state.hasReachedMax,
);
}
});
}
}
Creating api service.
- Create entity object in folder
lib/models/entitiesEx:movie_entity.dart
import 'package:json_annotation/json_annotation.dart';
part 'movie_entity.g.dart';
@JsonSerializable()
class MovieEntity {
@JsonKey()
String? title;
...
factory MovieEntity.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) => _$MovieEntityFromJson(json);
Map<String, dynamic> toJson() => _$MovieEntityToJson(this);
}
Class must have @JsonSerializable() for generator. Read json_serializable
- Define and Generate your API in file
lib/networks/api_client.dartEx: GET movies
/// Movie
@GET("/3/discover/movie")
Future<ArrayResponse<MovieEntity>> getMovies(@Query('api_key') String apiKey, @Query('page') int page);
Note: Using ArrayResponse and ObjectResponse for generic response
- Require run command line:
flutter pub run build_runner build --delete-conflicting-outputs
- Create api service file for your feature in folder
lib/services/apiEx:movies_api.dart
part of 'api_service.dart';
extension MovieApiService on ApiService {
Future<ArrayResponse<MovieEntity>> getMovies({int page = 1}) async {
return _apiClient.getMovies(MovieAPIConfig.APIKey, page);
}
}
After, add part 'auth_api.dart'; to services/api/api_service
- You can call API in the logic of screen. Ex:
final apiService = Get.find<ApiService>();
final result = await apiService.getMovies(page: 1);
Support multiple Theme and Language

Button UI when call API
return Obx(() {
return Container(
padding: EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 20),
child: AppTintButton(
title: 'Sign In',
onPressed: _signIn,
isLoading: state.signInStatus.value == LoadStatus.loading,
),
);
