The way people consume news has undergone a significant transformation in the digital era, with a growing preference for digital media. The rise of smartphones has further enabled people to access news content anytime and anywhere, making a news app a vital necessity. However, the idea of building an app from the ground up can be overwhelming, particularly for those lacking coding expertise. Fortunately, there are platforms available that enable anyone to design their own news app without requiring any coding skills.
Flutter provides the ability to develop applications for both Android and iOS using a single codebase, and getting started is easy with a Flutter application template.
By using Flutter app templates, you can considerably reduce the amount of time required for app development. In some instances, you might even receive a fully coded app that is ready to be uploaded to the App Store and Play Store, with only the branding left to be customized.
Not only that, but also with the backend you use, which is WordPress, one of the leading CMS in the world that is known for its ease of use and sophistication.
Let's get straight to it, here I am using the Flutter template called iniNews, which is already available on Codecanyon and works seamlessly with the latest version of WordPress, with a very easy installation process.
Have the source code ready
Make sure you already have the iniNews source code. If you don't, you can buy it directly through Codecanyon at an affordable price here.
Prepare your WordPress
Make sure you have a WordPress site and have updated it to the latest version. If you have, then you need to install the plugin that has been prepared by iniNews on your WordPress.
Let's customize the application
Before you start, make sure you have installed Android Studio and Flutter SDK, which will be needed to open the files and run the application.
If everything is installed, the next step is to open the application source code and modify it according to your preferences.
Publish the Application on PlayStore and App Store
Using Flutter, you can directly publish your application to Playstore and App Store because Flutter supports this by default. In other words, you have saved time and costs.
