Currency Converter App provides a simple way to convert any currency. The main idea for this project is to study and apply modularization with mono-repo and managed by Melos CLI, it follows some development best practices, such as Clean Architecture, Clean Code, SOLID, and so on.

Features

The project has only three features, :feature_welcome, :feature_conversion and :feature_currencies_list, you can see more details in app modularization guide.

App Modularization Guide

The project uses a modularization approach with mono-repo, to organize and breaking the concept of monolithic into loosely coupled, self contained modules.

A module graph of currency app A module graph of currency app, the arrows flow indicates the dependency way.

The project contains the following types of modules:

  • The app module - is the main entry point for the app, this module contains all the app level code, such as navigation, dependency injection setting, state management and other similar things.

  • feature modules - contains specific modules which has a single responsibility and should have no dependencies on other feature modules. They only depend on the core modules that they require.

  • core modules - common library modules and specific dependencies that need to be shared between other modules in the app. These modules can depend on other core modules, but they shouldn’t depend on feature or app modules.

All these modules are managed by Melos CLI, with this tool, we have more control over the dependencies in the entire project and we able to execute common tasks in all modules at the same time -- know more about Melos here. You can find, some scripts that is used by the project on melos.yaml file in the root directory.

As a mentioned above, the project uses an mono-repo approach to organize all the modules, this means that all the necessary modules exists inside this repository. As you can see bellow:

  .
  |__app
  |
  |__packages
  |  |
  |  |__core
  |  |  |__core...
  |  |
  |  |__feature
  |     |__feature...
  |
  |_melos.yaml

Some advantages of this approach:

  • Help us to split our codebase into small and independents packages, which is great for reuse and testing
  • Keep everything stored in one place, which saves a lot of time, when is searching for specific module
  • Enforces layered architecture, because all the packages refers to an specific layer

UI and Design

The app was designed with an simple and minimalist purpose, we use the concepts of design tokens and atomic design, you can check on figma file.

The app has supports for dark and light mode, you can find all components and tokens in the :core_ui package.

Technical Resources

  • Clean Architecture and SOLID concepts
  • Modularization Approach with mono-repo
  • Mono-repo management with Melos CLI
  • Dependency Injection in multiple modules with GetIt and Injectable
  • Design System and tokens for UI
  • Lottie Animations
  • Navigation system with Go Router
  • State management with Value Notifier

Getting Started

Follow these steps to configure and execute the project in your machine:

  1. First of all, you need the Flutter SDK and Android/iOS environments to continue -- find more information about this process here.

  2. After had finish the setup of your environment, go to the project directory, and run the following command:

melos bootstrap

This command runs flutter pub get in all modules at the same time and run build runner when the dependencies are installed with successful.

  1. At last, run the app with:
flutter run
