Styling and Theming

Using the Theme System

The package now supports a professional theme system that allows you to customize both normal text and markdown styling:

// Create a custom theme
final customTheme = StreamingTextTheme(
  textStyle: TextStyle(fontSize: 16, color: Colors.blue),
  markdownStyleSheet: MarkdownStyleSheet(
    h1: TextStyle(fontSize: 24, fontWeight: FontWeight.bold),
    p: TextStyle(fontSize: 16),
  ),
  defaultPadding: EdgeInsets.all(20),
);

// Apply theme to a single widget
StreamingTextMarkdown(
  text: '# Hello\nThis is a test',
  theme: customTheme,
)

// Or apply globally through your app's theme
MaterialApp(
  theme: ThemeData(
    extensions: [
      StreamingTextTheme(
        textStyle: TextStyle(/* ... */),
        markdownStyleSheet: MarkdownStyleSheet(/* ... */),
      ),
    ],
  ),
  // ...
)

Theme Inheritance

The theme system follows Flutter's standard inheritance pattern:

1. Widget-level theme (if provided)
2. Global theme extension
3. Default theme based on the current context
