/// It is best practice to place all of your [BlocEventType]s inside an enum
/// such as this one. This allows you to have an easy place to find all of them.

/// Perhaps it would be a good idea to have multiple enums based on different
/// event types.

/// You can add the type <T> to specify the type that these events will accept.
