-## Getting Started
+> ### The pub.dev website, rebuilt in Flutter with 💙!
 
-This project is a starting point for a Flutter application.

+
+## The Concept
+
+Pub.dev was recreated in Flutter for 3 primary reasons:
+
+1. Iteratively develop the [Responsive Framework](https://github.com/Codelessly/ResponsiveFramework) and scenario test the library by creating real world websites. The way to make the Responsive Framework the best Flutter web framework is by building actual Flutter websites!
+2. Investigate the need for a [Flutter App UI and Website Builder](https://codelessly.com). Does Flutter make web development so easy that Codelessly becomes redundant?
+3. Promote Flutter Web and convince more developers to start building Flutter Web components!
+
+## The Build
+
+I envisioned this build as a weekend project and estimated that it would take less than 20 hours. Unfortunately, replicating some web behavior took a bit longer than I expected and the build ended up taking 27 hours.
+
+Because I had built a few Flutter websites before, I factored in my increased proficiency and speed. Also, since I've already solved many Flutter web challenges with the Responsive Framework, I estimated that would save me even more time.
+
+- **Website elements (14h)**
+  - New project setup and icons (1.5h)
+  - Stylesheet creation (1h)
+  - Collecting UI images and icons (1h)
+  - Pub package data and links (2h)
+  - UI elements (8.5h)
+- **Responsive Framework (13h)**
+  - General website responsiveness (0.5h)
+    - Thanks Responsive Framework!!
+  - ResponsiveGridView creation (10h)
+  - Other responsive elements (2.5h)
+- **Publishing (7h)**
+  - Code cleanup and testing (2h)
+  - Writeup and screenshots (5h)
+
+## Final Thoughts
+
+Flutter Web is not an out of the box solution that lets anyone create a website easily. Flutter widgets are obviously built for mobile and replicating simple web behavior requires creative thinking or writing custom widgets. Writing custom widgets such as reimplementing a GridView takes  time and requires a level of familiarity with Flutter.
+
+However, building websites with Flutter has many advantages over traditional web development such as dramatically lower maintenance costs and high visual fidelity. In these early days, the lack of off-the-shelf Flutter Web components necessitates writing components ourselves which takes a long time.
+
+As for Codelessly, this experiment has demonstrated there is an opportunity to make Flutter web development simpler and dramatically decrease development time. Instead of a website build taking over 20 hours, building a production-level frontend should take less than 20 minutes.
