Image class

A widget that displays an image in the terminal.

Uses HalfBlockImageDrawable for cross-terminal compatibility, rendering images using half-block characters () with foreground/background colors.

The image parameter provides the image data asynchronously. While loading, placeholder is displayed. If loading fails, errorWidget is shown.

  image: FileImage('photo.png'),
  width: 40,
  height: 20,
  fit: BoxFit.contain,
