We interviewed Simone Civetta one of the organizers of Flutter Connection:
What makes Flutter Connection 2025 stand out from other Flutter conferences?
- We focus on advanced and actionable topics: Full-Stack Dev, Memory Management, CI/CD, etc - that means no marketing, and no non-Flutter related subjects.
- Cozy venue and monotrack format : ideal to make meaningful connections and create friendships
Any special activities, workshops, or networking sessions planned?
- Workshop: Yes! On April 3rd, Anton Borries will lead a workshop on advanced widgets with home_widgets.
- Networking sessions: Also yes! Our signature party just after the conference, Friday evening.
The biggest takeaway or highlight attendees can expect?
- I believe it's always great to assist - live - to a talk by Majid and Salih. I'm sure Aloïs will provide some - wow - moments as last year! And looking forward to help spread the word about Semantic Widgets. But all talks look super interesting, honestly!
