Flujo de una Aplicación Flutter

How to verify the complete flow of a recipe application?

To have a functional and attractive recipe application, it is crucial to ensure that the complete flow, from the data provider to the recipe detail and favorites functionality, operates smoothly. Here I will guide you through the process of reviewing and adjusting each part of our application, ensuring that all components work together.

How does the main flow of the application work?

1. List of Recipes on the Home Page: The application displays a list of recipes on the home page. Each recipe includes basic details such as an image and a title.

2. Recipe Detail: When clicking on a recipe, detailed information is displayed, such as the author's name. It was suggested to review and revise this to ensure that the author is displayed instead of other incorrect information.

3. Favorites button: When marking a recipe as a favorite, it should be correctly reflected in the favorites section. However, as noted, there was an issue preventing recipes from being added correctly to the favorites list.

How to troubleshoot favorites?

The debugging and verification process included the following steps:

1. Review of Recipe Detail: The functionality of passing data to the provider was verified to work correctly and details in the display of author information were adjusted.

2. Debugging of the Favorites Functionality:

   • A builder was used to identify if recipes were being added correctly to the favorites list.
   • A temporary comment was made to the code to prevent new recipes from being mistakenly added during testing.
   • Some hot reloading tests were performed, adding recipes to favorites to debug the error.

3. Final Adjustments:

   • I added a return to the builder so that it returns the list of widgets correctly.
   • I included the recipe data representation in the debug as a String, making sure that recipes are handled as objects, making them easier to review.

How to customize the favorites cart?

Having solved the basic problems and improved the functionality, I invite you to customize the favorites card. To make it more attractive, consider the following improvements using the widget properties:

• Images: Include images of the recipes to visually enrich the list.
• Border: Add a border to outline and visually separate each card.
• Color: Apply color to improve the aesthetics and make the interface more welcoming.

These modifications will allow for a more rewarding user experience and make your recipe app stand out. With these improvements and insights, continue to experiment and refine your application, and watch your project take on new life!
