# Platform Design
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Instead of transliterating widgets one by one between Cupertino and Material,
|
||
|
|
Android and iOS apps often follow different information architecture patterns
|
||
|
|
that require some design decisions.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This sample project shows a Flutter app that maximizes application code reuse
|
||
|
|
while adhering to different design patterns on Android and iOS. On
|
||
|
|
Android, it uses Material's [lateral navigation](https://material.io/design/navigation/understanding-navigation.html#types-of-navigation)
|
||
|
|
based on a drawer and on iOS, it adheres to Apple Human Interface Guideline's
|
||
|
|
[flat navigation](https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/ios/app-architecture/navigation/)
|
||
|
|
by using a bottom tab bar.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Visually, the app presents platform-agnostic content surrounded by
|
||
|
|
platform-specific 'chrome'.

# Features
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Home
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Defines the top level navigation structure of the app and shows the contents
|
||
|
|
of the songs tab on launch.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Android
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Uses the drawer paradigm on the root page.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### iOS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Uses bottom tab bars with parallel navigation stacks.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Songs feed tab
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Shows platform-agnostic cards that is tappable and that performs a hero
|
||
|
|
transition on top of the platform native page transitions.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Both platforms also show a button in their app/nav bar to toggle the platform.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Android
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Android uses a static pull-to-refresh pattern with an additional refresh
|
||
|
|
button in the app bar.
|
||
|
|
* The song details page must be popped in order to change tabs on Android.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### iOS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The iOS songs tab uses a scrollable iOS 11 large title style navigation bar.
|
||
|
|
* iOS uses an overscrolling pull-to-refresh pattern.
|
||
|
|
* On iOS, parallel tabs are always accessible and the songs tab's navigation
|
||
|
|
stack is preserved when changing tabs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## News Tab
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Shows platform-agnostic news boxes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Android
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The news tab always appears on top of the songs tab when summoned from the
|
||
|
|
drawer.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### iOS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The news tab appears instead of the songs tab on iOS when switching tabs from
|
||
|
|
the tab bar.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Profile Tab
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Shows a number of user preferences.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Android
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The profile tab appears on top of the songs tab on Android.
|
||
|
|
* Has tappable preference cards which shows a multiple-choice dialog on Android.
|
||
|
|
* The log out button shows a 2 button dialog on Android.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### iOS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The profile tab appears instead of the songs tab on iOS.
|
||
|
|
* Has tappable preference cards which shows a picker on iOS.
|
||
|
|
* The log out button shows a 3 choice action sheet on iOS.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Settings Tab
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Shows a number of app settings via Material switches which auto adapt to the
|
||
|
|
platform.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Android
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The settings is directly available in the drawer on Android since a Material
|
||
|
|
Design drawer can fit many tabs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### iOS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The settings is accessible from a button inside the profile tab's nav bar on
|
||
|
|
iOS. This is a common pattern since there are conventionally more items in the
|
||
|
|
drawer than there are tabs.
|
||
|
|
* On iOS, the settings page is shown as a full screen dialog instead of a tab
|
||
|
|
in the tab scaffold.
