ZenConsumer<T extends ZenController> class

Widget that provides a ZenController to a subtree via composition.

Resolves the controller from the nearest ZenProvider ancestor, with a fallback to global DI (Zen.put()). Fails fast — throws a clear error if the controller is not found, rather than rendering nothing silently.

Reactivity

ZenConsumer is NOT reactive by itself. It resolves the controller once and provides it to the builder. For reactive rebuilds, use ZenObserver (for Rx<T> values) or ZenUpdater (for controller.update() calls) inside the builder:

ZenConsumer<CartController>(
  builder: (context, controller) => ZenObserver(
    () => Text('\${controller.totalPrice.value}'),
  ),
)

Multi-Instance Safety

Because resolution uses context.controller<T>(), this widget is fully safe with multiple simultaneous instances — each resolves from its own nearest scope.
