drawer_rail 0.2.1

A collapsible, themeable side navigation drawer with a full-width panel and a narrow icon rail: search, sections, badges, expandable groups and flyouts.

Changelog

0.2.1

• Fix visual bug where hover effect was applied as an overlay affecting foreground legibility. Hover now strictly alters the background color using InkWell, keeping text and icons at 100% opacity.

0.2.0

• Add DrawerRailTheme.hoverEffect (DrawerHoverEffect.shadow / .highlight / .none) so the item hover feedback can be switched or turned off, plus hoverHighlightColor for the highlight variant.
• Fix the murky/cloudy look of the hover shadow: in shadow mode an opaque surface is now painted behind the card, so the shadow reads as a lift instead of a colored haze bleeding through transparent items.

0.1.0
