Learning: Mobile App Development - via Flutter What is … Flutter? Flutter is a mobile—and web—app development framework powered by the Dart programming language. It is akin to React Native or Ionic, and is built by Google. Dart is akin to JavaScript—but not.

Since coming out of beta in December 2018, trends from Stack Overflow and LinkedIn have indicated Flutter has become—and is currently—a well-developed, easy-to-use, community-driven framework for developing natively compiled apps.

In an attempt to spice up a navigation system I'm working on, I took to CodePen to experiment with some CSS-based 3D books on a shelf.

Although I believe the books turned out pretty good, I dashed the effort in lieu of a more simplistic approach. That aside, figured I would share the books I came up with, primarily because web development projects are fun to share.
Development PhasesBad ShelvesGood ShelvesNarrower ShelvesShelves with Taller Books (latest/most developed) Sources The base for this development effort was in part thanks to Intro to CSS 3D Transforms by David DeSandro. Although I completely overhauled and applied all types of modifications, David's examples provided the initial insights.
