EventSubscriber(
  events: [myCount.valueChanged],  // a List of 1 or more Events
  builder: (context, status, args) => Text('${myCount.value}'),
),

See the example folder for a more detailed example.

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:event/event.dart';
import 'package:eventsubscriber/eventsubscriber.dart';

// An example domain model of a simple Counter
// Normally in its own module/package
// Included here inline for illustration purposes
class Counter {
  int value = 0;
  var valueChanged = Event(); // declare Event

  void increment() {
    value++;
    // broadcast that the value has changed
    valueChanged.broadcast();
  }
}

//////////////////////

// Create the domain model
var myCounter = Counter();

// Flutter application
// The Counter value will increment when the button is pressed.
// The updated value will be automatically updated in the UI.
void main() => runApp(
      MaterialApp(
        home: Column(
          children: <Widget>[
            // Subscribe to the 'valueChanged' domain event
            EventSubscriber(
              events: [myCounter.valueChanged],
              builder: (context, status, args) {
                return Text(myCount.value.toString());
              },
            ),
            FlatButton(
              child: Text('Increment'),
              // Increment the domain value
              onPressed: () => myCounter.increment(),
            )
          ],
        ),
      ),
