    Flutter Layout

    Cheat Sheet

    Introduction

    Almost everything in Flutter is a widget.

    So any layout that you build in your app is expressed


    as a combination of widgets.

    The official Flutter docs already offer a complete list


    of layout widgets that you can use to arrange your
    content.

    This document is intended as a quick reference about


    how to use the most common layouts.

    Two types of widgets


    As far as layouts are concerned, there are two types
    of widgets:

    • single-child widgets (e.g. Container, Expanded)

    • multi-child widgets (e.g. Row, Column)

    Here we explore a few of these and their properties.

    the main axis.

    Row(
    mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceEvenly,
    crossAxisAlignment: _crossAxisAlignment,
    children: [

    flex: 2,
    child: Container(
    color: Colors.orange,
    child: Center(child: Text('flex: 2')),
    ),

    space around and between content.

    children: [
