I am writing some widget tests and very often I get overflow errors. I would love to be able to visualize the widgets pumped in a test to help me in debugging. Something similar to setting headless to false in web testing frameworks. Is this possible?
Use Flutter Layout Explorer ,
The Flutter Layout Explorer helps you to better understand Flutter
layouts. Currently, the Layout Explorer only supports exploration of
flex layouts, but it may be extended to other types of layouts in the
future.
You also have an option to use Codepens. It is great for visualizing ,sharing your UI design, you can also embed pens on your site/blog

I don't know what is the common way and best practices used in documenting UI widgets and components in a Flutter app, I could find a good resource on how to document dart code in general here
And how you can describe a function behavior or a model attribute.
But what is the best way to add comments for UI Classes, Screens, Refactored Widgets, etc..
so that it can be helpful and describes the widget or the screen contents?
The whole flutter project is open source. You could always check how the flutter team documents its widgets.
For example, here is the source of the Container widget:
https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/master/packages/flutter/lib/src/widgets/container.dart
Personally, I would only document widgets which I publish as part of a library. But tastes are different :D
Recently I'm working in a basic project to learn a little bit more of flutter.
But I found a blocker... which is that I have to pass data consistently and updated between a widget and its parent, so I wonder if is there any tool or extension to add that let me manage global scopes in my widgets.
Something like redux o a similar concept... Is there any of it? How can I control data in a flutter project if I need to use them in different widgets?
Thanks for your help
I am too new in flutter I need to know is there any widget or package for date picker something like this?
I am looking for something similar to this I try to find in flutter builtin packages but not able to find similar
Flutter is UI oriented, however, the specific widget you have posted does not come built-in, in-fact most widgets come in a skeleton form, and design is left to you, therefore, your imagination is the only limit to UI designs.
Despite this, the ever-growing flutter community has developed multiple packages for all sorts of widget designs. You may find a package close to what you have shown, here.
Looking for a UI integration test strategy for Flutter. We'd love to use Silenium/Ghost Inspector but seems that is not practical due to lack of html id's or CSS classes in Flutter (Add id or name property or other means of identification for Flutter Web applications?). Or has anyone found a way round that?
In the meantime Flutter Driver has only very basic documentation for simple tests like finding a button and pressing the button. Anyone know if I can do other operations like navigate to a specific page (e.g. using a # url fragment), test a link which leads to an external site, check visual setup of the page against an image, and other such tests which would be standard in Silenium and the like.
Thanks!!
Well seems Flutter Driver is still very limited so I have instead found a strategy for using Selenium, posted full details here:

I am new to GWT. can anyone help me to understand which one is best to built a web tool. Fluid Layout or Fixed layout...?
help me in this...
Thanks,,
This depends on the application you want to create.
I would always go for the flexible layout, if there a no contrary requirements.
