A Flutter web build of the completed app is available at this link:

This is intended as a reference eCommerce app for viewing and purchasing products, and includes the following features:

The demo includes a Flutter app that runs on iOS, Android and web.

The primary packages in use by the reference app are:

flutter_riverpod and riverpod_generator for state management
go_router for navigation and routing
flutter_stripe, flutter_stripe_web and pay for payments
sembast and sembast_web for local data persistence
firebase_auth
cloud_firestore
cloud_functions
flutter_staggered_grid_view for enhanced grid layouts
cached_network_image to show images from the Internet and keep them in the cache directory
mocktail for testing

The client app uses the controller-service-repository pattern and defines four layers:

Data layer using repositories to access to the outside world (Firebase) and expose data classes to the rest of the app via Futures and Streams
Domain layer containing all the models/entities needed by the app, along with the business logic to manipulate them
Application layer using service classes to mediate between the repositories and the levels below
Presentation layer containing the widgets along with the controllers that manipulate their state and call APIs from the layers above
