a column of text, a star icon, and a number.
|
Its first child, the column, contains two lines of text.
|
That first column might need more space.Row 2, the Button section, has three children: each child contains
|
a column which then contains an icon and text.After diagramming the layout, consider how you would code it.Would you write all the code in one class?
|
Or, would you create one class for each part of the layout?To follow Flutter best practices, create one class, or Widget,
|
to contain each part of your layout.
|
When Flutter needs to re-render part of a UI,
|
it updates the smallest part that changes.
|
This is why Flutter makes “everything a widget”.
|
If only the text changes in a Text widget, Flutter redraws only that text.
|
Flutter changes the least amount of the UI possible in response to user input.For this tutorial, write each element you have identified as its own widget.<topic_end>

Create the app base code
|
In this section, shell out the basic Flutter app code to start your app.Set up your Flutter environment.Create a new Flutter app.Replace the contents of lib/main.dart with the following code.
|
This app uses a parameter for the app title and the title shown
|
on the app’s appBar. This decision simplifies the code.
|
<code_start>import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
|
void main() => runApp(const MyApp());
|
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
|
const MyApp({super.key});
|
@override
|
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
|
const String appTitle = 'Flutter layout demo';
|
return MaterialApp(
|
title: appTitle,
|
home: Scaffold(
|
appBar: AppBar(
|
title: const Text(appTitle),
|
),
|
body: const Center(
|
child: Text('Hello World'),
|
),
|
),
|
);

Add the following code after the MyApp class.
|
<code_start>class TitleSection extends StatelessWidget {

super.key,
|
required this.name,
|
required this.location,
|
});
|
final String name;
