// The Program

Built for the way app developers actually ship in 2026.

The Learnio App Development Career Track is a complete six-month journey designed for absolute beginners. Each month stacks on the last - computer basics, Flutter and Dart, UI design and state management, Firebase and APIs, freelancing, and professional remote-work skills - so learners graduate with a marketable skillset, a GitHub portfolio of real apps, and a live build on the Play Store.

Project-Based Learning

Every chapter ends with a real app - a Resume UI, a Keep Notes clone, a Weather app, a To-do list with local storage, an MVVM Wallpaper app - shipped to GitHub and runnable on a real device the same day.

Modern Stack Mastery

Dart, Flutter widgets, Provider, GetX, Firebase Auth & Firestore, REST APIs, SharedPreferences, Sqflite, MVVM architecture, Git & GitHub - the full toolkit running today's production mobile apps.

Freelance-Ready

Live profiles on Fiverr, Upwork, and PeoplePerHour. Winning proposals. A GitHub of real apps, a published APK on the Play Store, and a first paying client before graduation.
