PRE-LAB READING ASSIGNMENT

What is CRUD  Create: Add new data to a database or API.


 Read: Fetch and display data from a database or API.
 Update: Modify existing data.
 Delete: Remove data.

HTTP  Use the http package to perform HTTP requests (GET, POST, PUT,
Communicatio DELETE).
n in Flutter  Handle responses and parse JSON data.

JSON Parsing  JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange


format.
 Use the dart:convert library to convert JSON data to Dart objects.

Asynchronous  Use Future, async, and await to handle asynchronous API calls
Programming

SQLite CRUD SQLite is a lightweight, serverless database management system widely


used for local storage in mobile applications. It is an embedded database,
meaning that it does not require a separate server to operate. SQLite is
easy to use, fast, and reliable, making it an excellent choice for offline-first
applications or apps that need simple data persistence.

Key Features of SQLite


 Serverless and self-contained.
 Supports ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability)
properties.
 Uses SQL (Structured Query Language) for querying data.
 Lightweight and efficient, with no configuration required.
