A Cross-Platform Wisdom Generator built with Flutter

Wisgen 🔮

A small Cross-Platform Wisdom Generator, built using Flutter and a combination of external APIs

This Wisdom Generator combines random advice from the the Internet with vaguely fitting and vaguely thought provoking stock images from the Unsplash Source API. You can also save bits of wisdom you like in your favorites or share them with your friends.

Wisgen is a reference project for the Devonfw Flutter Architecture Guide. Check it out if your interested in Flutter architecture and best-practices. 😉

Where do I get the Wisdoms from?

• Advice Slip API
• Advice from 100-Year-Olds
• InkTank
• Life Hacks
• Parent's Words of Wisdom
• And a few bits of my own Wisdom

Wanna Contribute? 👪

You can suggest your own pieces of Wisdom a through Pull Request if you want. This is where all the offline wisdoms are saved. The "#" marks the beginning of a new type of wisdom.
