Flutter Picture Gallery

A simple Flutter gallery app that displays a collection of images and allows navigation to a detailed view using Hero animations.

🚀 Features

• Grid-based gallery layout
• Detail screen for each image
• Smooth navigation using Hero animations
• Scrollable detail view
• Clean separation between UI and domain logic

🧠 Purpose of the Project

This project was created to deepen my understanding of Flutter and mobile app architecture.

Focus areas:

• Widget composition
• Navigation and routing
• State handling within UI
• Hero animations
• Separation of concerns (domain vs presentation)

🏗️ Architecture

The project follows a simplified feature-based structure:

• presentation → UI components (widgets, screens)
• domain → entities and business logic
• data → static data source

This structure helps keep the code modular and maintainable.

🛠️ Technologies

• Flutter
• Dart
