flutter_instagram_storyboard 0.0.8

A package that allows you to create stories like in instagram

This package allows you to create a storyboard like Instagram For now it's just an early release with a lot of useful functionality missing but it's already usable with some minor tweaks

Features

Present:

• A list of story buttons that can be marked as "watched" automatically
• 3D page view list view in Instagram
• Custom navigation
• Default story scaffold Missing yet:
• Button preloaders that allow the stories to be requested from the backend before opening
• Lazy loaders that preload visible the stories from the backend in the background

Getting started

The easiest way to get started is to use a built-in StoryListView to create story buttons It accepts a list of StoryButtonData objects. These objects contain all the settings for each story including the list of pages, the timing for each page and many other settings. The pages can be completely custom, they're just widgets.

Usage

Here's the completely working example:

class _StoryExamplePageState extends State<StoryExamplePage> {
  Widget _createDummyPage({
    required String text,
    required String imageName,
    bool addBottomBar = true,
  }) {
    return StoryPageScaffold(
      bottomNavigationBar: addBottomBar
          ? SizedBox(
              width: double.infinity,
              height: kBottomNavigationBarHeight,
              child: Padding(
                padding: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(
                  vertical: 8.0,
                  horizontal: 20.0,
                ),
                child: Row(
                  children: [
                    Expanded(
                      child: Container(
                        width: double.infinity,
                        height: double.infinity,
                        decoration: BoxDecoration(

Additional information

The package is under lazy construction. It is required in some projects I'm working on but not so much yet so I'm not implementing new features very quickly If you want to take part in the development, please feel free to make pull requests but make sure your code corresponds to major Dart language guidelines
