Grid Usage

This plugin have 3 major grid elements:

  • ResponsiveContainer: Container to all page elements, such as Rows and Columns, centralizing the content and beeing limited to a maximum width size

    ResponsiveContainer(
    
    // Determines the container's limit size
    widthLimit: ResponsiveScreen.limits['lg'],
    margin: EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 10),
    
    children: <Widget>[
    
    ResponsiveRow(),
    ResponsiveRow(),
    ResponsiveRow(),
    
    ]
    )
  • ResponsiveRow: Container wich contains many columns or even other widget.
    OBS: Its not necessary to wrap inner widgets into a ResponsiveCol object.

    ResponsiveRow(
    
    margin: EdgeInsets.only(top: 20, bottom: 5),
    
    children: <Widget>[
    
    ResponsiveCol(),
    ResponsiveCol(),
    ResponsiveCol(),
    
    Text('It´s fine to use another widget directly inside a ResponsiveRow', style: JSXTypography.q)
    ]
    ),
  • ResponsiveCol:

    ResponsiveCol(
    margin: EdgeInsets.all(10),
    padding: EdgeInsets.all(10),
    backgroundColor: Colors.blue,
    gridSizes: {
      'xs' : 4,
      'sm' : 3,
      'lg' : 2,
      'xl' : 1,
    },
    children: [
