- Advanced transitions – UI Tickets ChallengeAs developers, we have always get into situations where the designers require some fancy transitions which look awesome on the design but are extremely difficult to implement. Being Flutter developer makes it different, makes it fun because we have tools to do it! To prove it in this post, I will continue implementing awesome Buy Tickets design by Dldp and add bottom sheet transitions!
- Parallax effect in PageView – UI Tickets ChallengeParallax effects are awesome. Having elements move in the different speed during scrolling can easily provide the unique feeling for the application and they can make the user think that your app is well-polished. In this post, I will try to achieve parallax effect using PageView, Transforms, Alignments and some basic math.
- How to make ripple page transition in 3 minutes using FlutterFlutter makes beautiful animations easy. That’s the fact.

Let’s change it together! In this post, I’d like to show you how we can add a ripple effect that may make your client say “I like that!”.

- Shared Element Transition in FlutterHello there! Some time ago a friend of mine showed me an article and asked me if I can do Shared Element Transitions in Flutter. The first thought that came into my mind was “Simple, Heroes!” but when I looked closely, I’ve noticed that the transition in that article occurs in one page, so Hero transitions wouldn’t work in that case. In this post I will use AnimationControllers, Overlays and Rects to get the same result.
