Top Flutter Widget Extension packages
Last updated: January 26, 2025
Widget extensions in Flutter are a way of extending the functionality of existing widgets. In Flutter, a widget is a basic building block for creating user interfaces, and widgets can be composed to create more complex user interfaces. Widget extensions allow developers to create new widgets that extend the functionality of existing widgets in various ways. For example, a widget extension might add new properties or methods to an existing widget, or it might override the behavior of an existing widget in order to change its appearance or behavior. Widget extensions can be useful for adding custom functionality to your Flutter applications without having to create new widgets from scratch.
Following Flutter packages can aid you by supercharging popular widgets via Widget Extensions and Add Ons.
