Integration (if needed).
Tasks:
• Conduct user research and competitive analysis of existing streaming apps.
• Define the tech stack: Flutter for frontend, Firebase for backend (Authentication, Firestore, Storage).
• Create a product backlog and prioritize features into MVP (Minimum Viable Product) stages.

• Phase 2: UI/UX Design

Objective: Build an intuitive and responsive user interface.
Tasks:
• Design wireframes and mockups using Figma or other UI tools.
• Define key screens: Login, Movie Browsing, Player Interface, User Profile, and Subscriptions.
• Ensure UI/UX principles like accessibility, smooth navigation, and multi-device compatibility.
• Phase 3: Frontend Development (Flutter)
Objective: Build the core app using Flutter.
Tasks:
• Implement key screens using Flutter widgets (e.g., GridView for movies).
• Integrate the video_player package or Chewie for smooth video playback.
• Handle responsive layouts to support mobile, tablets, and web platforms.

• Phase 4: Backend Development (Firebase)

Objective: Set up backend services using Firebase.
Tasks:
• Authentication: Implement Google, Facebook, or Email-based login with Firebase Authentication.
• Database: Store movie data (title, genre, streaming URL) in Firestore or Realtime Database.
• Storage: Host video files or trailers in Firebase Storage.
• Analytics: Set up Firebase Analytics to track user engagement and behavior.
• Phase 5: Core Functionality Integration
Objective: Ensure smooth playback and user interaction.
Tasks:
• Implement search and filter functionality for browsing movies.
• Ensure video streaming optimization with buffering and caching strategies.
• Handle user preferences and watch history tracking via Firestore.

• Phase 6: Testing & Debugging

Objective: Ensure the app works across all devices and scenarios.
Tasks:
• Perform unit tests on individual components.
• Conduct integration testing for video streaming and Firebase services.
• Use emulators and physical devices for cross-platform testing (Android, iOS, web).
• Implement crash reporting with Firebase Crashlytics.
• Phase 7: Deployment & Launch
Objective: Release the app to end users.
Tasks:
• Deploy the backend to Firebase Hosting or Google Cloud.
• Release the app on Google Play Store, Apple App Store, and optionally web.
• Ensure App Store optimization (ASO) for better discoverability.

• Phase 8: Maintenance & Feature Enhancements

Objective: Ensure smooth operation and user satisfaction post-launch.
Tasks:
• Monitor performance with Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics.
• Gather user feedback and implement new features like downloadable content, live streaming, and
subscriptions.
• Schedule regular updates for bug fixes and feature enhancements.

I. INTRODUCTION
With the rapid growth of digital content consumption, video streaming platforms have become essential in delivering on
demand entertainment. Traditional native development frameworks for mobile applications face challenges in terms of
development speed, resource management, and platform specific optimizations. This project aims to address these
challenges by developing a cross-platform movie streaming application using Flutter and Firebase. Flutter, an open-source
framework developed by Google, allows developers to create natively compiled applications for multiple platforms with a
single codebase. Its rich library of customizable widgets provides a fast and visually appealing user experience. Firebase
complements Flutter with powerful backend services such as authentication, Firestore database, cloud storage, and real-
time analytics, making it ideal for building a dynamic streaming platform. The proposed application will include
functionalities such as user registration and login, video streaming, personalized recommendations, and watch history
tracking. It will also utilize Firebase Cloud Storage to store video content and Firestore to manage metadata like movie
titles, genres, and user preferences. By leveraging these tools, the system aims to provide low-latency streaming,
seamless user compatibility.
