Overview

For someone long enough in the Flutter community, it is hard to miss the Wonderous App, a beautiful App built by the talented folks at GSkinner 🔗. This is a great example of a content-rich app showcasing wonders around the world with slick animations.

As you know, the Vyuh Framework was designed to work well with Content of all kinds, especially where the CMS-hosted Content becomes the centerpiece of your experience. The Wonderous App fits perfectly with this idea, and we decided to rebuild it using the Vyuh Framework.

A variety of features from the framework are at play:

1. Custom content types
2. Custom documents with configurable section-based rendering
3. Navigation between pages and templated routing
4. Custom actions
5. API integrations with Unsplash
6. Google Maps integration
7. YouTube player

These set of posts will walk you through how it was built and the various choices made to reimagine the experience with Vyuh.
