Review: Good, but not perfect - Good. But some chapters feel weaker. Please do not spam with this ":]", this should be used rarely than in every single chapter, in special occasion, like it was in book on Dart that you reference multiple times in your book. And I honestly think that you shouldn't skip part in the first chapters where you wrote API with mock data. Even though you started explanation in later chapters.
