Everything is a widget #

In every flutter app we use widgets. Everything in the app is made from widgets.

To create a widget we should use following recommendations:

Widget... #

  • should be placed in the /widgets folder.
  • should be named accordingly to its content.
  • should be easialy exported.
  • should only export itself.

File Structure #

There are two simple rules to file structure.

  1. All content should be exported in one file.
  2. All content should be containted inside src folder.

The root folder is named after the widget and contains only the exporting file and src folder.

Inside src folder there can be such folders:

| Folder | Filename | Description | --------- | ----------- |--------------------------- | ------------------ | constants | widget_name_const.dart | widget settings | styles | widget_name_style.dart | widget ui settings and functions | models | model_name_model.dart | models that this widget or its children will need | utils | util_name.dart | logic functions for the desired widget to work | widgets | widget_name.dart | other widgets that will this widget use | sources | source_namesource.dart | possibility to import files from other libraries and change something if needed | other | widget_nameother.dart | Bloc, cubit, singletons, services and other logic


Tips #

1. Single File

Though it is recommended to split your widget into folders, but as long as your widget is really small, you can have it all in one file. This is also usable with other folders. For example if you want to split your widget, but do not want to split it's style, you may leave it as is (but you still need to create a folder for that style).

  • Even if models / utils / widgets folder has one file, it still should be named plural.
  • But other folder should be named in respect to its plurality.

Splitting Files #

If your file is too big and you want to effectively split it you should use part / part of expressions. In your style folder create all the folders where you want to have your file splitted and name them accordingly to their content. You can also leave some content in main file if you want to.

When splitting using part, set the library following style project_name.widget_name.type

  • For example you can use text folder in style to define text styles for your widget with library app.widget.style

Style Splitting #

Folder File Description
text widget_name.dart text styles
theme theme_name.dart ui settings
utils util_name.dart ui functions
other other_name.dart custom ui

Const Splitting #

Folder File Description
settings setting_name.dart constant settings
other other_name.dart custom constants

Classification #

In purposes of clean code and easy import we set 2 requirements:

  1. Widget class name should be identical to it's filename. For example, class named HomeScreen should be placed in a file home_screen.dart.
  2. Folder name should be identical to file in it's root. For example, file named home_screen.dart should be placed in a folder home_screen.

Import #

For means of easy code and avoiding overcomplicating imports, we should import only the main folder file in the file type folders.


Export #

By default widget should export everything that can be needed when importing it. That means styles, constants, models, other widgets, logic, etc. For example if widget has custom models and/or utils, that can be used for creating that widget, or managing it's content from outside, they should be exported.

If you want to have more than one widget in the widget root and your widgets share the same suffix, you should create a folder named with this suffix and place your widgets there. For example, for files home_screen.dart and home2_screen.dart you should create a folder named screens and put files home.dart and home2.dart there. This also requires renaming widget folder name from home_screen to home and exporting widget content including all widgets in the file home.dart. This concept can also be used with group of widgets in the widgets folder.


Quick Note on Export

If you have the same type of files from outside the current widget, that will this widget use, you should put them in this widget type file. For example, if you have main style file in the root of the app that you want to use in current widget, you should export it from the current widget's local style file and not import it in the widgets underneath this widget.


Project Structure #

  1. File Structure
  2. Flutter Bloc (Cubit)
  3. MWWM
  4. Flutter Modular

Analisys Options #

  • It is a good idea to have your code sorted and unified. You can use our predefined analysis options just for that.

Bad Practicies #

  • You should not export other libraries from your own.
