What are the StatefulWidget and StatelessWidget best practices?
|
Here are a few things to consider when designing your widget.In Flutter, widgets are either Stateful or Stateless—depending on whether
|
they depend on a state change.In Flutter, there are three primary ways to manage state:When deciding which approach to use, consider the following principles:The MyStatefulWidget class manages its own state—it extends
|
StatefulWidget, it overrides the createState()
|
method to create the State object,
|
and the framework calls createState() to build the widget.
|
In this example, createState() creates an instance of
|
_MyStatefulWidgetState, which
|
is implemented in the next best practice.
|
<code_start>class MyStatefulWidget extends StatefulWidget {
|
const MyStatefulWidget({
|
super.key,
|
required this.title,
|
});
|
final String title;
|
@override
|
State<MyStatefulWidget> createState() => _MyStatefulWidgetState();
|
}
|
class _MyStatefulWidgetState extends State<MyStatefulWidget> {
|
@override
|
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
|
//...
|
}
|
}<code_end>
|
Add your custom StatefulWidget to the widget tree
|
in the app’s build method.
|
<code_start>class MyStatelessWidget extends StatelessWidget {
|
// This widget is the root of your application.
|
const MyStatelessWidget({super.key});
|
@override
|
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
|
return const MaterialApp(
|
title: 'Flutter Demo',
|
home: MyStatefulWidget(title: 'State Change Demo'),
|
);
|
}
|
}<code_end>

Props
|
In React Native, most components can be customized when they are
|
created with different parameters or properties, called props.
|
These parameters can be used in a child component using this.props.In Flutter, you assign a local variable or function marked
|
final with the property received in the parameterized constructor.
|
<code_start>/// Flutter
|
class CustomCard extends StatelessWidget {
|
const CustomCard({
|
super.key,
|
required this.index,
|
required this.onPress,
|
});
|
final int index;
|
final void Function() onPress;
|
@override
|
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
|
return Card(
|
child: Column(
|
children: <Widget>[
|
Text('Card $index'),
|
TextButton(
|
onPressed: onPress,
|
child: const Text('Press'),
|
),
|
],
|
),
|
);
|
}
|
}
|
class UseCard extends StatelessWidget {
|
const UseCard({super.key, required this.index});
|
final int index;
|
@override
|
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
|
/// Usage
|
return CustomCard(
|
index: index,
|
onPress: () {
|
print('Card $index');
|
},
|
);
|
}

Local storage
|
If you don’t need to store a lot of data, and it doesn’t require
|
structure, you can use shared_preferences which allows you to
|
read and write persistent key-value pairs of primitive data
|
types: booleans, floats, ints, longs, and strings.<topic_end>
|
<topic_start>
|
How do I store persistent key-value pairs that are global to the app?
|
In React Native, you use the setItem and getItem functions
|
of the AsyncStorage component to store and retrieve data
|
that is persistent and global to the app.In Flutter, use the shared_preferences plugin to
|
store and retrieve key-value data that is persistent and global
|
to the app. The shared_preferences plugin wraps
|
NSUserDefaults on iOS and SharedPreferences on Android,
|
providing a persistent store for simple data.To add the shared_preferences package as a dependency, run flutter pub add:
