Divider class

A horizontal line widget used to visually separate content sections.

Divider creates a thin horizontal line that spans the available width, optionally with indentation from either end. It's commonly used to separate content sections, list items, or create visual breaks in layouts. The divider can optionally contain a child widget (such as text) that appears centered on the divider line.

Key features:

  • Horizontal line spanning available width
  • Configurable thickness and color
  • Optional indentation from start and end
  • Support for child widgets (text, icons, etc.)
  • Customizable padding around child content
  • Theme integration for consistent styling
  • Implements PreferredSizeWidget for flexible layout

The divider automatically adapts to the current theme's border color and can be customized through individual properties or theme configuration. When a child is provided, the divider line is broken to accommodate the child content with appropriate padding.

Common use cases:

  • Separating sections in forms or settings screens
  • Creating breaks between list items
  • Dividing content areas in complex layouts
  • Adding labeled dividers with text or icons

Example:

Column(
  children: [
    Text('Section 1'),
    Divider(),
    Text('Section 2'),
    Divider(
      child: Text('OR', style: TextStyle(color: Colors.grey)),
      thickness: 2,
      indent: 20,
      endIndent: 20,
    ),
    Text('Section 3'),
  ],
);
