flutter_twitter_clone is a full-featured Twitter clone built with Flutter and Firebase, designed to demonstrate how to integrate social networking functionality into a mobile app. The project covers authentication, posting tweets, image uploads, likes, comments, retweets, push notifications, and profile management. Its architecture showcases Firebase Firestore for real-time updates, Firebase Auth for user management, and Firebase Storage for media handling. The UI attempts to closely mirror Twitter’s familiar interface, including a responsive feed, notifications tab, and user discovery. The project illustrates best practices for handling streams, async data, and state management in social apps. It’s both a learning tool and a foundation that can be customized into other social or content-sharing platforms.
