Clean Architecture in Flutter: Folder Structure Every Developer Should Follow
In this guide
A simple overview of Clean Architecture in Flutter: Folder Structure Every Developer Should Follow. Learn what it means, when it helps, and what to check first.
Clean Architecture separates your code into independent layers. This ensures that your UI logic doesn't get tangled with your business logic or data sources.
The Three Layers
1. Presentation: Widgets, State Management (Bloc/Riverpod).
2. Domain: Entities, Usecases, Repository Interfaces (Pure Dart, no Flutter dependencies).
3. Data: API calls, Local Database, Repository Implementation.
