Features

• Architecture-agnostic: Works with any state management approach, from setState to BLoC. Not even Future usage is assumed.

• Layout-agnostic: Out-of-the-box widgets corresponding to GridView, SliverGrid, ListView and SliverList – including .separated constructors. Not enough? You can easily create a custom layout.

• API-agnostic: By letting you in complete charge of your API calls, Infinite Scroll Pagination works with any pagination strategy.

• Highly customizable: You can change everything. Provide your own progress, error and empty list indicators. Too lazy to change? The defaults will cover you.

• Extensible: Seamless integration with pull-to-refresh, searching, filtering and sorting.

• Listen to state changes: In addition to displaying widgets to inform the current status, such as progress and error indicators, you can also use a listener to display dialogs/snackbars/toasts or execute any other action.
