[amruthvvkp]

Description

This is the initial setup phase for Teju's Studio mobile application. We will establish the foundation for both the Flutter frontend and the future FastAPI backend integration.

Tasks

Flutter Project Setup:

• Create a new Flutter project for Teju's Studio mobile app.
• Install and configure the Flutter SDK with any necessary plugins for core functionalities.
• Define the project structure with clear folder organization for efficient code management.
• Development Environment Configuration:
• Set up version control with Git and create a new repository on GitHub.
• Ensure you have the necessary development tools installed (e.g., code editor, terminal emulator).
• Configure your development environment for running and debugging Flutter applications.
• Placeholder for FastAPI Backend:
• In the project structure, create a dedicated folder (e.g., backend_placeholder) to serve as a placeholder for the future FastAPI backend integration.
• This folder can hold initial documentation outlining the planned API endpoints and data models for the backend (optional).

Acceptance Criteria

• A new Flutter project is created and configured successfully.
• The development environment is set up for running and debugging Flutter apps.
• A version control system with a GitHub repository is established.
• A placeholder folder (optional) exists for the future FastAPI backend integration, with basic documentation outlining the planned functionalities (optional).

Additional Notes

• Consider running flutter doctor to identify any missing dependencies or configuration issues.
• Refer to the official Flutter documentation for detailed setup instructions: https://docs.flutter.dev/get-started/install
• Document any challenges or decisions made during this initial setup phase.
