Filer

A File Manager Written in Flutter for mobile. It started as my 4th year project Course during my time @ Algoma University.

Introduction

Flutter is Google's cross platform UI language that uses the Dart language as the backend. Due to the nature of Flutter it allows for a generally platform agnostic
application that is concise across platforms. You are also able to use it to develop Desktop
applications.

Goal

To make a file manager for the Android-x86 platform that is a bit more user-friendly as there are
some differences between the Android Os and the port. (In the realm of user interaction that is).
