NextWidget

NextWidget is a powerful Flutter package that allows you to generate UI components via command-line interface (CLI), similar to shadcn ui for React.

Features

  • Generate Flutter widgets and components from the command line
  • Customizable templates for different types of components
  • Easy integration with existing Flutter projects
  • Configurable output directory and naming conventions

Installation

Add nextwidget to your pubspec.yaml file:

dev_dependencies:
  nextwidget: ^1.0.1

Or install it from the command line:

dart pub add nextwidget --dev

### Usage

To generate a new component, run the following command:

dart run bin/nextwidget.dart generate --name custom_button --type widget

This will generate a new Flutter widget called `CustomButton` in the `lib/components` directory.

You can customize the component's template by adding a `nextwidget.yaml` file to your project's root directory. The `nextwidget.yaml` file should contain a mapping of component names to their respective templates.

For example, to customize the `CustomButton` component, you can add the following to your `nextwidget.yaml` file:

```yaml
custom_button: lib/src/templates/custom_button_template.dart

This will generate a new CustomButton component with the specified template.

You can also customize the output directory and naming conventions by adding a nextwidget.yaml file to your project's root directory. The nextwidget.yaml file should contain a mapping of component names to their respective output paths.
