Getting Started #
ezFlap is mainly a build-time tool, used to "compile" ezFlap widgets to Dart.
An "ezFlap widget" is a Flutter widget that provides its render tree using ezFlap's ZML and annotations.
When developing ezFlap widgets - we do not write a build()
method. ezFlap generates it for us automatically.
We will refer to Flutter widgets that are not ezFlap widgets as "native widgets".
ezFlap analyzes:
- The ezFlap widget class.
- ezFlap annotations.
- ZML code (that provides the build tree).
- ZSS code (that provides styling).
- ZSS files in the directory hierarchy.
Then, it generates the Dart code that will:
- Build the widgets tree
- Perform additional logic expressed in the ZML and ZSS of the widget.
