Simplified Text Widget Package

A Flutter package that provides beautifully styled text widgets with enforced font consistency.

📦 Installation

Use this package as a library

🔗 Depend on it

Run this command:

With Flutter:

 flutter pub add simplified_text_widget

🚀 Getting Started

import 'package:simplified_text_widget/simplified_text_widget.dart';

void main() {
  SimplifiedTextWidgetConfig.config(
    responsiveFonts: bool, **required** // Enable/Disable font responsiveness globally
    maxSizeMultiplier: double, (optional) // Max font scale factor (Default: 1.5)
    baseScreenWidth: double, (optional) // Design width for calculation (Default: 375)
    defaultFontWeight: FontWeight, (optional) // Default weight for Text[size] variants
    defaultColor: Color (optional) // Default color for all widgets (Default: Color(0xFF000000))
  );
  runApp(const MyApp());
}

Configuration Options

Property	Type	Default	Description
responsiveFonts	bool	required	Whether fonts should scale based on screen width.
maxSizeMultiplier	double	1.5	Limits how large the font can grow on large screens.
baseScreenWidth	double	375	The screen width (in logical pixels) your UI was designed for.
defaultFontWeight	DefaultFontWeight	w500	The weight used by base Text[size] variants (e.g., Text14).
defaultColor	Color	Color(0xFF000000)	The fallback color if no color is provided to a widget.

📐 How Responsiveness Works

When responsiveFonts is set to true, the font size is calculated dynamically based on the current screen width.

Example Calculations

Assuming baseScreenWidth: 375 (Default):

Initial Size	Current Width	Multiplier	Resulting Size
14px	375px (Mobile)	1.5x	14.0px
14px	562px (Tablet)	1.5x	21.0px
14px	750px (Desktop)	1.5x	21.0px (Clamped by 1.5x)
14px	750px (Desktop)	2.0x	28.0px

Features

• Centrally Managed Configuration: Introducing SimplifiedTextWidgetConfig to control global defaults like color and font weight across your entire app.
• Smart Responsiveness: Effortlessly scale your typography based on baseScreenWidth with built-in maxSizeMultiplier guards to ensure readability on cross platform.
• Rich Debug Logging: Get instant visibility into your global setup with beautifully formatted console logs, featuring color previews for your defaultColor.
• Global Default Color: Declare a fallback defaultColor (e.g., Colors.navy) during initialization to maintain brand consistency without repeating color parameters.
• Base Variants: Simplified usage with Text[size] (e.g., Text14) which dynamically inherits your globally configured font weight.

import 'package:simplified_text_widget/simplified_text_widget.dart';


  SimplifiedTextWidgetConfig.config(
    responsiveFonts: false // false if you don't need responsiveness
);

🛠️ Setup Your Font

1. Add Font Files

Place your font files in:

your_project/
└── assets/
    └── fonts/
        ├── YourFont.ttf

2. Configure pubspec.yaml

Add this configuration (must use exact family name):

fonts:
  - family: CustomTextFont _# ← REQUIRED NAME_
    fonts:
      - asset: assets/fonts/YourFont.ttf

3. Clean & Rebuild

flutter pub get

🎯 Basic Usage

The library provides two types of variants for every size:

1. Base Variants (Text[size]): Uses the global default weight (e.g., Text14).
2. Weight Variants (Text[size]w[weight]): Uses a specific weight (e.g., Text14w700).

import 'package:simplified_text_widget/simplified_text_widget.dart';

// 1. Base Variants (uses configured default weight)
Text14('Consistent 14px text');
Text20('Consistent 20px title');

// 2. Weight-Specific Variants (100-900)
Text14w400('Regular 14px text');
Text16w700('Bold 16px text', color: Colors.blue);
Text24w900('Heavy 24px title');

✨ All Customization Options

Text18w500(
  'Fully customizable',
  color: Colors.purple,
  letterSpacing: 1.2,
  height: 1.5,
  maxLines: 2,
  overflow: TextOverflow.ellipsis,
);

📏 Available Text Variants

Size	Weights Available	Example
6	100-900	Text6w400
12	100-900	Text12w700
14	100-900	Text14w500
...	...	...
48	100-900	Text48w900

🧠 VS Code Snippets (Optional but Recommended)

To boost your productivity and ensure consistency, we've included a set of VS Code snippets to instantly generate styled text widgets with predefined font sizes and weights.

✅ How to Use

1. Open VS Code
2. Go to `Preferences` → `Configure Snippets`
3. Choose `dart.json` (or create if it doesn't exist)
4. Copy contents from the root `dart.json` file in this package
5. Save and restart VS Code

Now you can type shortcuts like:

t14w4 → Text14w400('Your text here')
t18w7 → Text18w700('Bold title')

🚨 Troubleshooting

Font Not Working?

1. Verify exact path matches: assets/fonts/YourFont.ttf
2. Check family name is exactly CustomTextFont
3. Ensure proper indentation in pubspec.yaml
4. Run:

   flutter clean
   flutter pub get

Error: "Unable to locate asset"

• Double-check your font files exist at the specified path
• File names are case-sensitive
