Animations are the secret sauce of great user experiences. In Flutter, adding motion to your app isn’t just about making things pretty; it’s about making interfaces feel smooth, intuitive, and alive.

In this talk, we’ll explore the full spectrum of Flutter’s animation capabilities: from one-line AnimatedContainer transitions to fully custom animated widgets powered by AnimationController. You’ll learn the difference between implicit and explicit animations, how to use Hero animations, and how to layer motion effectively without hurting performance.

Expect live demos, real world UI patterns, and plenty of code you can steal for your next project. Whether you're new to Flutter or ready to level up your UI game; this workshop will leave you ready to animate with confidence.

Estimated duration: 30 mins - 1 hour
