Step 1: Setting up a new FlutterFlow project
The first thing you need to do is to create a new FlutterFlow project by going to the FlutterFlow website (https://flutterflow.io/). If you're not logged in, make sure to click on the Login
button on the top right of the page, and once you're logged in, click the Create New Project
button to start a new project. Provide a project name and click Create
.
Step 2: Designing the custom sign-up screen
In the project workspace, from the menu options on top, click on the UI Builder
option to start designing your sign-up screen.
To add a new screen, click on the +
button next to Screens
on the sidebar to the left. A modal will appear, asking for the screen name and type. Enter "SignUpScreen" for the name and for the type, select Empty
. FlutterFlow will create an empty screen for you.
Now, you will design the sign-up form. From the same sidebar to the left, scroll down to the Components
section - these are the visual elements that you can add to the screen.
Column
widget from the panel and drop it on the new screen. Columns can contain many child widgets and are typically used to create vertical lists of elements.Column
widget, add TextField
components as child widgets for the user's email, password, and confirm password. You can adjust settings such as placeholder text, whether the field is password or not, and also assign each TextField
a unique name under the Data
tab in the right-side properties panel.RaisedButton
widget at the bottom of the Column
. This will serve as the submit button for your sign-up form. For this button, set the onClick
action to signup.Step 3: Integrating backend for user sign-up
Having set up the visual interface of the sign-up screen, next is to add the backend functionality. In FlutterFlow, this is achieved using Firebase's authentication capabilities. In the left sidebar, click on Authentication
under the Backend
section.
You will then need to configure FlutterFlow with your Firebase app. Click on Add Firebase to your project
, and follow the instructions to add your Firebase config.
Once successfully connected, click on the Tabluar View
button under the Authentication
section, and you will see a list of action options related to authentication. Drag the Sign Up With Email and Password
action and drop it on to the RaisedButton
you created in the previous step.
In the configuration for the SignUp
action, set the email and password fields to match the ones from the TextField
components in the sign-up form. You may also want to add a success and failure navigation, basically specifying which screen to navigate to if sign-up succeeds or fails.
Step 4: Finalizing your sign-up screen
Return to the UI Builder
section and preview your app by clicking on the play button at the top right corner of the screen. You should see a preview of your sign-up screen.
Try signing up with an email and password, and make sure the success and failure navigations work as expected. If everything is working well, congratulations! You have just created a custom sign-up screen for your FlutterFlow app.
Remember to save your project frequently to avoid loss of data.
In conclusion, the process of creating a custom sign-up screen involves designing the sign-up form, adding sign-up related backend functionality, and finalizing your design. Follow the above step-by-step guide to get a basic implementation of a sign-up screen on FlutterFlow. As you get more comfortable with FlutterFlow, you can experiment with more complex designs and functionality.
