Getting started

Place the SimpleNavHome widget under your MaterialApp's home property and you are good to go.

If you use some state management solution, just wrap the SimpleNavHome widget with your solution, below there is an example using Provider.

You should pass a list of Menu Items (SimpleNavItemModel) to the SimpleNavHome widget, each menu item can receive a title, a screen widget and, optionally, up to 3 actions icons.

Usage

• Minimal usage

// Fist you set up the Menu Items, consisting of a String title, a Widget screen and, optionally, up to 3 actions icons.
List<SimpleNavItemModel> _menuItemList() {
  return [
    SimpleNavItemModel(menuItemTitle: 'Menu 1', screen: Container(color: Colors.amber)),
    SimpleNavItemModel(menuItemTitle: 'Menu 2', screen: Container(color: Colors.brown)),
    SimpleNavItemModel(menuItemTitle: 'Menu 3', screen: Container(color: Colors.green)),
  ];
}

// Then you pass the Menu Items to the Navigation Menu, the full list of available parameters are in the examples.
SimpleNavHome(
  titleWidget: const Text('Simple Navigation Menu'),
  appDrawer: const Drawer(child: Center(child: Text("Drawer"))),
  navMenuItemList: _menuItemList(),
  isTopMenu: true,
);

• If you use state management, just wrap everything up like below.

return MultiProvider(
  providers: [
    ListenableProvider<ChangeNofitierOne>(create: (_) => changeNotifierOne),
    ListenableProvider<ChangeNofitierTwo>(create: (_) => changeNotifierTwo),
  ],
  child: const Example(),
);

• If you want to use an Ad, just pass it to the Simple Navigation Menu like below. See the example section for details.

return SimpleNavHome(
  navMenuItemList: _getNavMenuItemList(),
  isTopAd: false,
  ad: _bannerAd != null ? AdWidget(ad: _bannerAd!) : null,
  adBackColor: Colors.purple,
);

For passing actions (icons) or to see details on Ads, see the example section.

Parameters for SimpleNavHome

Required:

• navMenuItemList: the list of Menu Items to display, each is a SimpleNavItemModel type. The current limit is 10, but you probably shouldn't use more than 6 on a mobile fone, it won't look very good, but all depends on the screen size and the size of the menu's title.
