App 🚀

We decided to challenge ourselves to make a spotify app in just one week.

How did we do it 🤔:

  • The first 3 days were mostly used for studying the spotify api and how to use it for a flutter app, also we started making the first design choices.
  • We then started making all the widgets we needed, starting from the homepage to insert all the features inside.
  • Once we finished the homepage and were also able to connect to the spotify api we switched to making the logic part, it was the fifth day already.
  • After finishing the logic we added some details and fixed some issues, it was the last day.

Problems 🚩: The worst problem we encountered was the spotify Access Token duration, it lasts only an hour after it is created.

Solutions 💡: We had to think of a way to be able to use the spotify api for longer than an hour without the need to login again, so the best solution that came to our minds was to access it every time you open the app, but the requests that needed the access token login to work were made as soon as possible, and we used the public api for the requests which didn’t need an access token, so the user would be able to use the app for more than an hour without any problem.

Conclusions ⚖️

The project was a success and both of us learned a lot from this experience, even though we already knew flutter.
