awesome_floating_bottom_navigation 1.0.0

A floating bottom navigation bar with configurable item layout (expand or center), splash and scale animations, gradients, blur and custom borders.

1.0.0

Fixes for defects that made parts of the package unusable, plus tests - the package had none.

Breaking

• IndexedWidgetBuilder renamed to AwesomeTabBuilder. The old name is also declared by package:flutter/material.dart, so any file importing both got an ambiguous_import error and the .builder constructor could not be used.
• SafeAreaValues is now exported from the package entry point. It was part of the public API through safeAreaValues: but was never exported, so no caller could construct one.
• FlexibleOuterSpace and CustomRoundedRectangleClipper are now private.
• onTap is typed ValueChanged<int> instead of Function(int).

Fixed

• The splash animation no longer leaks a ticker. A new AnimationController was created on every didUpdateWidget and none was ever disposed, so the bar threw "was disposed with an active Ticker" when it left the tree mid-animation.
• The splash only replays when the selection actually changes. The guard on activeIndex was commented out, so any rebuild above the bar restarted it.
• The default splash is purple, as documented. A null splashColor reached the painter as null and was painted white - invisible on the default background.
• The bar no longer requires a Scaffold ancestor. It called Scaffold.geometryOf(context) for a value it never used.
• The bar's subtree is no longer rebuilt from scratch on every build: the inner CustomPaint carried a UniqueKey().
• Both painters and the clipper now repaint and reclip only when their inputs change, instead of on every frame.

Other

• Requires Dart 3.8 / Flutter 3.32; flutter_lints 6; no deprecated APIs left.
• Each item is exposed to screen readers as a button with its selected state, and the new semanticLabels gives those buttons a name.
• The published archive no longer carries the 1.5 MB demo video.
• The example app no longer leaks an AnimationController, and its test checks the bar instead of a counter that does not exist.
