Abstract
This article presents the design and implementation of a cross-platform mobile application intended to support distance-education students enrolled in the «Web Application Development» course. Built with Flutter and Dart, the application delivers nine sequentially structured course topics, each comprising theoretical content, embedded YouTube video lectures, executable code examples, and a ten-question adaptive quiz. The paper describes the architectural decisions, core functional modules, administrator and student interfaces, an offline-capable local storage mechanism, and a QR-coded digital certificate system. The study addresses the persistent challenge of limited instructor–learner interaction in distance learning and demonstrates that a carefully engineered mobile platform can substantially improve content accessibility, self-paced progression, and learning outcomes.
