How do I use widgets to define layout properties? |
In React Native, most of the layout can be done with the props |
that are passed to a specific component. |
For example, you could use the style prop on the View component |
in order to specify the flexbox properties. |
To arrange your components in a column, you would specify a prop such as: |
flexDirection: 'column'.In Flutter, the layout is primarily defined by widgets |
specifically designed to provide layout, |
combined with control widgets and their style properties.For example, the Column and Row widgets |
take an array of children and align them |
vertically and horizontally respectively. |
A Container widget takes a combination of |
layout and styling properties, and a |
Center widget centers its child widgets. |
<code_start>@override |
Widget build(BuildContext context) { |
return Center( |
child: Column( |
children: <Widget>[ |
Container( |
color: Colors.red, |
width: 100, |
height: 100, |
), |
Container( |
color: Colors.blue, |
width: 100, |
height: 100, |
), |
Container( |
color: Colors.green, |
width: 100, |
height: 100, |
), |
], |
), |
);<code_end> |
Flutter provides a variety of layout widgets in its core widget library. |
For example, Padding, Align, and Stack.For a complete list, see Layout Widgets.<topic_end> |

How do I layer widgets? |
In React Native, components can be layered using absolute positioning.Flutter uses the Stack |
widget to arrange children widgets in layers. |
The widgets can entirely or partially overlap the base widget.The Stack widget positions its children relative to the edges of its box. |
This class is useful if you simply want to overlap several children widgets. |
<code_start>@override |
Widget build(BuildContext context) { |
return Stack( |
alignment: const Alignment(0.6, 0.6), |
children: <Widget>[ |
const CircleAvatar( |
backgroundImage: NetworkImage( |
'https://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/u/14101776?v=4', |
), |
), |
Container( |
color: Colors.black45, |
child: const Text('Flutter'), |
), |
], |
);<code_end> |
The previous example uses Stack to overlay a Container |
(that displays its Text on a translucent black background) |
on top of a CircleAvatar. |
The Stack offsets the text using the alignment property |
and Alignment coordinates.For more information, see the Stack class documentation.<topic_end> |

How do I style my components? |
In React Native, inline styling and stylesheets.create |
are used to style components.In Flutter, a Text widget can take a TextStyle class |
for its style property. If you want to use the same text |
style in multiple places, you can create a |
TextStyle class and use it for multiple Text widgets. |
<code_start>const TextStyle textStyle = TextStyle( |
color: Colors.cyan, |
fontSize: 32, |
fontWeight: FontWeight.w600, |
); |
return const Center( |
child: Column( |
children: <Widget>[ |
Text('Sample text', style: textStyle), |
Padding( |
padding: EdgeInsets.all(20), |
child: Icon( |
Icons.lightbulb_outline, |
size: 48, |
color: Colors.redAccent, |
), |
), |
], |
