Easy Gap

Flutter extension for easily adding gaps between children widgets inside Flex widgets such as Columns and Rows or scrolling views.

Introduction

When it comes to add empty space between children widgets inside a Column or a Row, we have multiple options:

• We can either add a Padding around these widgets but it's very verbose
• Or we can add SizedBox widgets between them.

Getting started

In your library add the following import:

import 'package:easy_gap/easy_gap.dart';

Then you just have to call method gap() for widget list with the specified extent.

return Column(
  children: <Widget>[
    Container(color: Colors.red, width: 20),
    Container(color: Colors.green, width: 20),
    Container(color: Colors.blue, width: 20),
  ].gap(20) // Adds an empty spaces of 20 pixels between widgets.
);

The gap() method also works inside Scrollable widgets such as ListViews. In these cases, it will occupy the space in the same direction as the Scrollable.

SliverGap

There is also a sliver version of the gap():

return CustomScrollView(
  slivers: <Widget>[
  // Some slivers
  ].sliverGap(20) // Adds an empty spaces of 20 pixels between slivers.
);
