Transcript: 31. Introduction

In this final part of the course, you’ll learn a bit about Flutter state management, and lifting state up the widget tree. Doing so will let you fix the problem we found in the last part of the course on filtering the courses list to a particular technology domain.

You’ll begin by learning about Flutter state management options.

Then you’ll create an inherited widget that will let you lift state up. The inherited widget will be wrapped inside a state container that will hold the actual filter state.

Next you’ll utilize the inherited widget and filter state container to lift state up.

Finally, you’ll add some finishing touches to the app, in particular, locking the app in portrait mode and letting the user open the web page for each course on raywenderlich.com, which will let them view courses episodes inside a web view or mobile browser.
