Installation

Install Flutter and add it to your PATH by following the official guide: https://docs.flutter.dev/install/add-to-path

For device emulation, install either Xcode (iOS) or Android Studio (Android).

After installation, verify everything is set up correctly:

flutter doctor

Create a Project

# If you already have a folder
flutter create .

# If you don't have a folder yet
flutter create <name_your_project>

Use _ (underscore) for folder names, not - (hyphen).

Run Your Project

flutter run

# If you have an emulator running
emulator @Pixel_8
