It's clear you've poured a lot of effort into this modern Interior Design Studio landing page built with Flutter. The project really shines in several key areas:
* Pixel-Perfect & Adaptive UI: This is crucial for today's web, and your focus on a UI that flawlessly adapts across desktop, tablet, and mobile with intelligent content wrapping is a testament to strong responsive design.
* Engaging User Flow: From the bold Hero Section to key business statistics and dynamic navigation with an integrated Drawer menu for mobile, you've thought about how users will interact and engage with the site.
* Exemplary Code Architecture: Building for maintainability and scalability using Flutter best practices and centralized theming demonstrates a professional and forward-thinking approach to development.
* Flutter's Web Prowess: You're showcasing a powerful example of high-performance web applications from a single codebase, efficiently deployed via GitHub Actions. This really highlights Flutter's strength as a full-stack solution.
Here's a glimpse of the NEXT E-commerce App in action:

This section outlines the steps to build and deploy your Flutter web application to GitHub Pages using standard Git commands, without relying on npm
or other package managers for the deployment step itself.
Prerequisites:
- Flutter SDK installed: Ensure Flutter is set up on your machine.
- Git installed: You'll need Git for version control.
- GitHub account: A GitHub account is required to create repositories and host pages.
Workflow Overview:
Your Flutter project's source code will reside on the main
branch. The compiled web assets (from the build/web
directory) will be pushed to a separate gh-pages
branch, which GitHub Pages will then serve.
Step-by-Step Guide:
-
Ensure Flutter Web Support is Enabled (One-time Setup): If this is a new project or you haven't enabled web support yet:
flutter config --enable-web flutter create . --platform web # Run in your project root if adding web to existing project
-
Develop Your Flutter Web App: Build your application as usual. Test it locally to ensure it functions as expected:
flutter run -d chrome
-
Prepare Your
.gitignore
: It's crucial that yourbuild/
directory is ignored by yourmain
branch. Open your.gitignore
file (in your project's root) and ensure it contains the line:/build/
This prevents your compiled web app from being committed alongside your source code.
-
Push Your Flutter Source Code to
main
: Regularly commit and push your Flutter project's source code to your GitHub repository'smain
branch:# Go to your project's root directory if you're not already there # cd your_flutter_project_name git add . git commit -m "feat: My awesome new Flutter feature" git push origin main # Or 'master' if that's your default branch
(At this point, only your source code is on GitHub; your web app is not yet live.)
-
Build Your Flutter Web App for Release: This command compiles your Flutter code into static web files. Remember to replace
<YOUR_REPO_NAME>
with the exact name of your GitHub repository. For this project, it would be/Flutter-Web-Responsive-Design-Anikit-Grover/
.flutter build web --release --base-href /<YOUR_REPO_NAME>/
This generates the deployable files in the
build/web
directory. -
Manually Deploy
build/web
to thegh-pages
Branch: This set of Git commands will create/update agh-pages
branch in your remote repository with only the contents of yourbuild/web
folder.# Ensure you are in your Flutter project's root directory cd <your_flutter_project_name> # 6.1. Optional: Ensure your main branch is clean before temporary operations git status # If there are uncommitted changes, commit or stash them. # 6.2. Create and switch to a temporary orphan branch for deployment # The --orphan flag creates a new branch without any commit history. git checkout --orphan gh-pages-temp # 6.3. Remove all files from this temporary branch's working directory # (Since it's an orphan branch, this ensures a clean slate) git rm -rf . # 6.4. Copy the *contents* of your built web app into the current directory # (which is the root of your temporary branch's working directory) cp -r build/web/* . # 6.5. Add all the copied files git add . # 6.6. Commit these files to the temporary branch git commit -m "Deploy Flutter web app to GitHub Pages" # 6.7. Push the temporary branch to the remote 'gh-pages' branch # The --force flag is used because you are replacing the entire history # of the 'gh-pages' branch with this new build. This is standard for static # site deployment branches. git push origin gh-pages-temp:gh-pages --force # 6.8. Switch back to your 'main' branch and delete the temporary branch git checkout main git branch -D gh-pages-temp
-
Configure GitHub Pages on github.com (One-time Setup/Verification): This step tells GitHub to serve your website from the
gh-pages
branch.- Go to your repository on github.com.
- Click on the
Settings
tab. - In the left sidebar, click on
Pages
. - Under "Build and deployment," for "Source," select the
gh-pages
branch. - For "Folder," select
/ (root)
. - Click the
Save
button.
