Emulator or physical device for testing Flutter apps on Android and iOS platforms is necessary.

Operating System Compatibility: The course content will primarily focus on cross-platform development, thus compatibility with Windows (7 SP1 or later), macOS (10.14 or later), or Linux (64-bit distributions) is required.

Learning Commitment: Dedication to learning and practicing regularly throughout the course duration is necessary. Learners should be willing to engage with course materials, assignments, and hands-on exercises to reinforce learning.

Communication Skills: Proficiency in English or the language of instruction is required for understanding course content, instructions, and communication with instructors and peers.
