What is Leitmotif?

A collection of widgets and screens for Flutter implementing the Leitmotif Design Language. It complements the default Material Widgets shipped with Flutter. Whose Widgets include custom implementation of Snackbars, AppBars and a settings panel. Utility Screens (e.g. required to verify the user's age and to show the application's licenses) are also included.

'Leitmotif' is derived from the German noun 'Leitmotiv' which describes a dominant and recurring theme in music and literature.

Leitmotif is based on the LitUIKit project, which has been discontinued.
