Tinder-like card swipe in Flutter

Implementing Tinder-like card swipe in Flutter is quite easy. Flutter provides really powerful widgets and packages. Today, we are implementing Tinder-like card swipe in Flutter.

Also, in case you are planning to build dating mobile app, the swipe feature will be quite necessary.

You can use swipe_cards package to implement or it can also easily be done by without a package using a Draggable widget and other different approaches. In this blog, I am using swipe_cards. package.
Check our Flutter app development services page.

Breakdown:

I am breaking down the whole process into 2 steps:

• Creating a background to make the app look attractive.
• Swipe cards.

Implementation:

First, we will create background UI and then swipe cards. and at last, wrap them up with Stack widgets.

Let’s create our background UI.

For background UI, I have used some basic widgets. Linear gradient is used for box decoration but they looks same as they are really similar colors. You can use entirely different colors and it will still look good.

Now, let’s work on creating our swipe cards.

• Add swipe_cards package in your pub spec file.
• For images, I have a list of some random image urls.

• Now add an empty list of swipe items and then add image list item in the swipe item list in initstate function.

• You can also add buttons and perform various functions using likeAction, nopeAction, and superlikeAction buttons.
• Now add SwipeCard widget and add image view. SwipeCards must have match engine, item builder, and onStackFinished function.

• Now wrap both these functions in the stack widget and it’s done.

Result:

Conclusion:

This is how we add swipe cards in flutter.
