Each page includes an image at the top, a title, and a short description below it, similar to what you see in most modern apps. Let's get started!

What is PageView in FlutterFlow?

PageView in FlutterFlow is a widget that allows you to create scrollable pages that users can swipe horizontally or vertically. It's commonly used for:

  • Onboarding screens

  • Product tours

  • Story-like experiences

  • Interactive content displays

With PageView, you can provide users with an intuitive and visually appealing experience.

Why Use PageView for Onboarding Screens?

An onboarding screen is the first interaction users have with your app. It’s crucial for:

  • Highlighting app features

  • Guiding users through initial setup

  • Making a great first impression

Using a PageView widget for onboarding screens ensures a seamless and interactive introduction for your users.

Example: Creating a Sliding Onboarding Screen in FlutterFlow

Follow these steps to build a sliding onboarding screen with PageView in FlutterFlow:

Step 1: Add a PageView Widget

  1. Open your FlutterFlow project.

  2. Drag and drop the PageView widget onto your canvas.

  3. Set the orientation to horizontal for side-to-side swiping.

Step 2: Add Three Sliding Pages

Each page will have:

  • An image at the top

  • A title in the center

  • A short description below the title

Page 1:

  • Image: A high-quality illustration or icon representing your app’s primary feature.

  • Title: "Welcome to [Your App Name]"

  • Description: "Discover the easiest way to manage your tasks."

Page 2:

  • Image: An image showcasing your app’s secondary feature.

  • Title: "Stay Organized"

  • Description: "Keep track of your projects with just a few taps."

Page 3:

  • Image: A fun and engaging visual.

  • Title: "Get Started Now"

  • Description: "Join thousands of users today."

Step 3: Customize the Design

  1. Use the Container widget to wrap your content (image, title, description).

  2. Apply padding and margins to ensure proper spacing.

  3. Add a background color or gradient to each page for visual appeal.

Step 4: Preview and Test

  • Preview your design in FlutterFlow’s live editor.

  • Test the swiping functionality to ensure smooth transitions.
