  3. Set up Environment Variables:

    • Open the "System Properties" window by searching for "environment variables" in the Windows search bar.
    • Click on "Environment Variables".
    • Under "System Variables", find the "Path" variable and click "Edit".
    • Add the path to your Flutter SDK's bin directory to the variable value. For example, add C:\src\flutter\bin.
    • Click "OK" on all windows to save the changes.
  4. Install Android Studio:

  5. Verify Flutter Installation:

    • Open a new command prompt or terminal.
    • Type flutter doctor and press Enter.
    • Flutter will analyze your system and display a list of dependencies and any missing requirements.
    • If everything is installed correctly, you should see a message indicating that "Flutter is ready to use!".
  6. Start Developing:

    • You can now create your first Flutter application by running the command flutter create my_app.
    • This will create a new Flutter project named "my_app".
    • Navigate to the project directory using cd my_app.
    • Run the application using flutter run.

Note: You may need to install additional software packages, such as Visual Studio Code or Android Studio, depending on your development needs and preferences.
