Building “R U Ready” – My Flutter Dating App Development Journey

Leader posted 1 min read

I’ve been working on a new project called R U Ready, a full-featured Flutter dating app, and it’s been one of the most technically enriching experiences in my Flutter journey.

The goal is to build a real-time, scalable, and intuitive dating platform using Flutter + Firebase as the core stack. I started with a modular architecture to ensure clean separation between UI, logic, and data layers — applying principles of Clean Architecture and MVVM for maintainability.

Key modules include:

Authentication Layer using Firebase Auth (Email/Mobile)

Profile Management with dynamic Firestore data binding

Swipe Engine built with custom animation controllers for smooth profile transitions

Chat System using Firestore real-time streams and optimized query listeners

App Theming & State Management implemented via Provider and ChangeNotifier for reactive UI updates

Throughout the process, I’ve learned how to fine-tune Firestore query performance, implement pagination, handle context-safe navigation, and optimize rebuilds using widget lifecycle awareness.

Currently, I’m focusing on extending the architecture for Reels and Group Chat features while integrating AdMob monetization and in-app upgrades.

Every commit teaches me something new about building production-grade apps with Flutter.
