Q: How do I connect Flutter apps to Strapi?

Use Dart's `http` or `dio` packages to communicate with Strapi's REST API. Parse JSON responses using Dart's built-in serialization or code generation tools like `json_serializable`.

Q: How do I implement offline support in Flutter with Strapi?

Use packages like `hive` or `sqflite` for local data persistence. Cache Strapi content locally and sync when connectivity returns, handling conflicts appropriately.
