August: Animating the game - Flutter at Draftkings

As a follow up from FlutterCon we are excited to welcome Yuhao Feng and see his presentation he recently did at FlutterCon. Special thanks to [VIAM](https://www.viam.com/) for hosting us this month! We're looking forward to another great evening of learning and networking! **Agenda:** 6:00 : Doors open. **Remember your ID**! 6:30 : Welcome message & Announcements 6:35 : Presentation & Discussion 8:00 : Door Prizes **Animating the game - Flutter at Draftkings** This talk shows how we married Flutter's UI, Flame's game loop, and Rive's designer-driven motion — all orchestrated by a clean Riverpod architecture that keeps live game state flowing reactively from socket to screen — to transform a live data feed into a smooth, engaging fan experience.
