Hero Animation Unmasked

Is it a bird... Is it a plane... It's a Widget !!!

Whether you are new to Flutter, or been around for years, you have heard of the famous Hero Animation that makes a widget "fly" from one page to the next when navigating.

Through this presentation, I will embark you through the amazing journey of unmasking this mysterious Hero animation to get a good understanding of how it works under the hood.
On the way, attendees will receive a better understanding of how Flutter works and especially learn how to:
- Listen to navigation events (push, pop...) to trigger some logic
- Browse through Flutter's Element tree to look for certain elements
- Retrieve an element's position on screen
- Use the Overlay widget to display ... well overlaying widgets

...So, ready for take-off ?
