PaginatedListView<T, E> class

A drop-in ListView that handles pagination automatically.

Attach it to an ApiPaginator and it will:

  • Render items with itemBuilder
  • Show a shimmer / loading indicator while the first page loads
  • Show an empty view when there are no results
  • Append a per-page loader at the bottom while fetching the next page
  • Trigger paginator.loadNext() when the user scrolls near the end

Example:

PaginatedListView<Gallery, ApiError>(
  paginator: _paginator,
  itemBuilder:    (ctx, item) => GalleryCard(item),
  loadingBuilder: () => const GalleryShimmer(),
  emptyBuilder:   () => const EmptyGalleries(),
  errorBuilder:   (msg) => ErrorView(msg, onRetry: _paginator.loadFirst),
)
