DotStepper class

A family of fully customizable, beautiful page indicator widgets with awesome built-in animations. Each dot in a DotStepper represents a step.

The DotStepper can be controller in 2 ways: Using external buttons or by tapping individual dots. The tapping behavior can also be disabled.

The DotStepper provides out-of-the-box indicators with modern beautiful transition effects. Further, the DotStepper supports different shapes such as, circle, rectangle, stadium, etc.

The DotStepper supports managing the radius of the dots, the spacing betweeen dots, enabling lineConnectors between dots, etc.

It can be customized using many ways, one such being the built-in decorations for fixedDots, indicators, line-connectors, etc.

For more information, See Example.
