NOTE:

Before using the project, you must obtain an API Key from https://newsapi.org/. It's a pretty easy process. Then you must define this key in the AppConstants class in the project.

You can find the Postman file I created by looking at the API documentation under the postman folder in the project.

Getting Started

First of all, there are two main builds in our src folder. These are view and core structures.

• core: This layer is the part that will manage or initiate the work that will do our main work.

base: This layer contains our main functions and service files.

components: This layer contains widgets that we can use on the pages, such as button, text, scaffold, which we can create here and customize with parameters where we want to use them.

constants: This layer consists of two structures, these structures are app and enums structures.

extensions: This layer and the project contain the basic structure, String and int.

init: This layer consists of 5 main structures. These structures are main_build , routes , network, theme and dependency_injector.

mixins: waitForScreen mixin is defined here and later used in NetworkChangeManager.

utils: Typedefs used in the app are filed here.

• view: This layer contains our screens. We can create a folder for each screen and keep a viewModel or model file for this screen, if necessary, in this folder.
