- 💙 Slide deck is built as any other Flutter app.
- 🧭 Navigator 2.0 support - each slide is rendered as an individual page with a deep link to it.
- 🐾 Steps - each slide can have multiple steps that can be navigated through.
- ⚙️ Define a global configuration once and override it per slide if needed.
- 🚀 Predictable API to access the slide deck state and its methods from anywhere in the app.
- 📦 Out of the box slide templates, widgets, transitions and controls.
- 🎨 Custom theming and light/dark mode support.
❗ In order to start using flutter_deck you must have the Flutter SDK installed on your machine.
Add flutter_deck
to your pubspec.yaml
:
dependencies:
flutter_deck:
Install it:
flutter packages get
Use FlutterDeckApp
as your slide deck's root widget and pass a list of FlutterDeckSlideWidget
widgets to it:
void main() {
runApp(const FlutterDeckExample());
}
class FlutterDeckExample extends StatelessWidget {
const FlutterDeckExample({super.key});
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
// This is an entry point for the Flutter Deck app.
return FlutterDeckApp(
configuration: const FlutterDeckConfiguration(...),
slides: [
<...>
],
);
}
}
Also, you can define a global configuration for your slide deck:
FlutterDeckApp(
configuration: const FlutterDeckConfiguration(
background: FlutterDeckBackgroundConfiguration(
light: FlutterDeckBackground.solid(Color(0xFFB5FFFC)),
dark: FlutterDeckBackground.solid(Color(0xFF16222A)),
),
controls: FlutterDeckControlsConfiguration(
nextKey: LogicalKeyboardKey.arrowRight,
previousKey: LogicalKeyboardKey.arrowLeft,
openDrawerKey: LogicalKeyboardKey.period,
),
footer: FlutterDeckFooterConfiguration(
showSlideNumbers: true,
showSocialHandle: true,
),
header: FlutterDeckHeaderConfiguration(
showHeader: false,
),
showProgress: false,
transition: FlutterDeckTransition.fade(),
),
<...>
);
Use any colors you like:
FlutterDeckApp(
lightTheme: FlutterDeckThemeData.light(),
darkTheme: FlutterDeckThemeData.dark(),
themeMode: ThemeMode.system,
<...>
);
And do not forget to introduce yourself!
FlutterDeckApp(
speakerInfo: const FlutterDeckSpeakerInfo(
name: 'John Doe',
description: 'CEO of flutter_deck',
socialHandle: '@john_doe',
imagePath: 'assets/me.png',
),
<...>
);
To create a slide, extend the FlutterDeckSlideWidget
class and override the build
method that returns a FlutterDeckSlide
widget. FlutterDeckSlide
supports a few predefined slide templates that help you to create a slide faster.
// Extend the FlutterDeckSlideWidget class...
class NewSlide extends FlutterDeckSlideWidget {
const NewSlide()
: super(
configuration: const FlutterDeckSlideConfiguration(
route: '/new-slide',
),
);
// ...override the build method...
@override
FlutterDeckSlide build(BuildContext context) {
// ...and create a new FlutterDeckSlide instance.
}
}
To create a title slide, use the FlutterDeckSlide.title
constructor. It is responsible for rendering the default header and footer of the slide deck, and placing the title and subtitle in the correct places. Also, if the FlutterDeckSpeakerInfo
is set, it will render the speaker info below the title and subtitle.
class TitleSlide extends FlutterDeckSlideWidget {
const TitleSlide()
: super(
configuration: const FlutterDeckSlideConfiguration(
route: '/title-slide',
footer: FlutterDeckFooterConfiguration(showFooter: false),
),
);
@override
FlutterDeckSlide build(BuildContext context) {
return FlutterDeckSlide.title(
title: 'Here goes the title of the slide',
subtitle: 'Here goes the subtitle of the slide (optional)',
);
}
}
To create a title slide, use the FlutterDeckSlide.blank
constructor. It is responsible for rendering the default header and footer of the slide deck, and rendering the content of the slide using the provided builder
.
class BlankSlide extends FlutterDeckSlideWidget {
const BlankSlide()
: super(
configuration: const FlutterDeckSlideConfiguration(
route: '/blank-slide',
header: FlutterDeckHeaderConfiguration(
title: 'Blank slide template',
),
),
);
@override
FlutterDeckSlide build(BuildContext context) {
return FlutterDeckSlide.blank(
builder: (context) => const Text('Here goes the content of the slide'),
);
}
}
To create an image slide, use the FlutterDeckSlide.image
constructor. It is responsible for rendering the default header and footer of the slide deck, and rendering the image using the provided imageBuilder
.
class ImageSlide extends FlutterDeckSlideWidget {
const ImageSlide()
: super(
configuration: const FlutterDeckSlideConfiguration(
route: '/image-slide',
header: FlutterDeckHeaderConfiguration(
title: 'Image slide template',
),
),
);
@override
FlutterDeckSlide build(BuildContext context) {
return FlutterDeckSlide.image(
imageBuilder: (context) => Image.asset('assets/image.png'),
label: 'Here goes the label of the image (optional)',
);
}
}
To create a split slide, use the FlutterDeckSlide.split
constructor. It is responsible for rendering the default header and footer of the slide deck, and use the leftBuilder
and rightBuilder
to create the content of the left and right columns. Make sure to use text styles from Theme
or FlutterDeckTheme
to apply the correct text styling for specific slide sections.
class SplitSlide extends FlutterDeckSlideWidget {
const SplitSlide()
: super(
configuration: const FlutterDeckSlideConfiguration(
route: '/split-slide',
header: FlutterDeckHeaderConfiguration(
title: 'Split slide template',
),
),
);
@override
FlutterDeckSlide build(BuildContext context) {
return FlutterDeckSlide.split(
leftBuilder: (context) {
return Text(
'Here goes the LEFT section content of the slide',
style: FlutterDeckTheme.of(context).textTheme.bodyMedium,
);
},
rightBuilder: (context) {
return Text(
'Here goes the RIGHT section content of the slide',
style: FlutterDeckTheme.of(context).textTheme.bodyMedium,
);
},
);
}
}
To create a custom template slide, use the FlutterDeckSlide.template
constructor. It is responsible for placing the header, footer, and content of the slide in the correct places. Also, it is responsible for displaying the background of the slide.
class TemplateSlide extends FlutterDeckSlideWidget {
const TemplateSlide()
: super(
configuration: const FlutterDeckSlideConfiguration(
route: '/template-slide',
),
);
@override
FlutterDeckSlide build(BuildContext context) {
return FlutterDeckSlide.template(
backgroundBuilder: (context) => FlutterDeckBackground.solid(
Theme.of(context).colorScheme.background,
),
contentBuilder: (context) => const ColoredBox(
color: Colors.red,
child: Text('Content goes here...'),
),
footerBuilder: (context) => ColoredBox(
color: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.secondary,
child: const Text('Footer goes here...'),
),
headerBuilder: (context) => ColoredBox(
color: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.primary,
child: const Text('Header goes here...'),
),
);
}
}
To create a custom slide (without any predefined template), use the FlutterDeckSlide.custom
constructor and pass a custom builder
to it.
class CustomSlide extends FlutterDeckSlideWidget {
const CustomSlide()
: super(
configuration: const FlutterDeckSlideConfiguration(
route: '/custom-slide',
),
);
@override
FlutterDeckSlide build(BuildContext context) {
return FlutterDeckSlide.custom(
builder: (context) {
return const Text('Here goes your custom slide content...');
},
);
}
}
To create a big fact slide, use the FlutterDeckSlide.bigFact
constructor. It is responsible for rendering the title (fact) with the description (subtitle) below it.
class BigFactSlide extends FlutterDeckSlideWidget {
const BigFactSlide()
: super(
configuration: const FlutterDeckSlideConfiguration(
route: '/big-fact',
header: FlutterDeckHeaderConfiguration(
title: 'Big fact slide template',
),
),
);
@override
FlutterDeckSlide build(BuildContext context) {
return FlutterDeckSlide.bigFact(
title: '100%',
subtitle:
'The test coverage value that flutter_deck will probably never achieve',
theme: FlutterDeckTheme.of(context).copyWith(
bigFactSlideTheme: const FlutterDeckBigFactSlideThemeData(
titleTextStyle: TextStyle(color: Colors.amber),
),
),
);
}
}
You can customize the theme of your slide deck by providing a FlutterDeckThemeData
to the FlutterDeckApp
widget:
return FlutterDeckApp(
// You can define light...
lightTheme: FlutterDeckThemeData.fromTheme(
ThemeData.from(
colorScheme: ColorScheme.fromSeed(
seedColor: const Color(0xFFB5FFFC),
),
useMaterial3: true,
),
),
// ...and dark themes.
darkTheme: FlutterDeckThemeData.fromTheme(
ThemeData.from(
colorScheme: ColorScheme.fromSeed(
seedColor: const Color(0xFF16222A),
brightness: Brightness.dark,
),
useMaterial3: true,
),
),
);
It's also possible to override the theme for a specific slide. The provided theme data will be merged with the global theme. Meaning, only the properties you specify there are overridden:
class ThemingSlide extends FlutterDeckSlideWidget {
const ThemingSlide()
: super(
configuration: const FlutterDeckSlideConfiguration(
route: '/theming-slide',
header: FlutterDeckHeaderConfiguration(title: 'Theming'),
),
);
@override
FlutterDeckSlide build(BuildContext context) {
return FlutterDeckSlide.split(
theme: FlutterDeckTheme.of(context).copyWith(
splitSlideTheme: const FlutterDeckSplitSlideThemeData(
leftBackgroundColor: Colors.blue,
leftColor: Colors.yellow,
rightBackgroundColor: Colors.yellow,
rightColor: Colors.blue,
),
),
leftBuilder: (context) => <...>
rightBuilder: (context) => <...>
);
}
}
Also, you can override the theme for a specific flutter deck widget that supports theming (e.g. header, footer, bullet list, code highlight, etc.). Simply, wrap the widget with a corresponding theme widget:
FlutterDeckSlide.template(
// Wrap header with a theme widget to override the theme.
headerBuilder: (context) => FlutterDeckHeaderTheme(
data: FlutterDeckHeaderThemeData(
color: Colors.red,
textStyle: FlutterDeckTheme.of(context).textTheme.header,
),
child: const FlutterDeckHeader(title: 'Header'),
),
// Wrap footer with a theme widget to override the theme.
footerBuilder: (context) => FlutterDeckFooterTheme(
data: FlutterDeckFooterThemeData(
socialHandleColor: Colors.blue,
socialHandleTextStyle:
FlutterDeckTheme.of(context).textTheme.bodyMedium,
),
child: const FlutterDeckFooter(showSlideNumber: false),
),
contentBuilder: (context) => Center(
// Wrap code highlight with a theme widget to override the theme.
child: FlutterDeckCodeHighlightTheme(
data: FlutterDeckCodeHighlightThemeData(
backgroundColor: Colors.green,
textStyle: FlutterDeckTheme.of(context).textTheme.bodyLarge,
),
child: const FlutterDeckCodeHighlight(code: '<...>'),
),
),
);
By default, all slides are visible and available in the slide deck. However, you can hide a slide by setting the hidden
property to true
for the slide configuration:
class HiddenSlide extends FlutterDeckSlideWidget {
const HiddenSlide()
: super(
configuration: const FlutterDeckSlideConfiguration(
route: '/hidden',
hidden: true, // Sets the slide to be hidden
),
);
@override
FlutterDeckSlide build(BuildContext context) {
return FlutterDeckSlide.blank(
builder: (context) => const Center(
child: Text("This slide is hidden. Oh, but you can't see it..."),
),
);
}
}
This package comes with a few predefined widgets that could be used in your slide deck.
A widget that renders a list of bullet points. Bullet point items are rendered as a row with a bullet point and the text. The bullet point is rendered as a dot by default, but can be customized by providing a bulletPointWidget
. The text is rendered as an AutoSizeText
widget and is automatically resized to fit the available space.
If useSteps
is true for the slide configuration, the bullet points will be rendered one by one as the user steps through the slide.
class FlutterDeckBulletListDemoSlide extends FlutterDeckSlideWidget {
const FlutterDeckBulletListDemoSlide()
: super(
configuration: const FlutterDeckSlideConfiguration(
route: '/bullet-list-demo',
steps: 3, // Define the number of steps for the slide
),
);
@override
FlutterDeckSlide build(BuildContext context) {
return FlutterDeckSlide.split(
leftBuilder: (context) => FlutterDeckBulletList(
useSteps: true, // Enable steps for the bullet list
items: const [
'This is a step',
'This is another step',
'This is a third step',
],
),
rightBuilder: (context) => const Text('FlutterDeckBulletList demo'),
);
}
}
Provides a widget that gives you customizable syntax highlighting for many languages.
class CodeHighlightSlide extends FlutterDeckSlideWidget {
const CodeHighlightSlide()
: super(
configuration: const FlutterDeckSlideConfiguration(
route: '/code-highlight',
header: FlutterDeckHeaderConfiguration(title: 'Code Highlighting'),
),
);
@override
FlutterDeckSlide build(BuildContext context) {
return FlutterDeckSlide.blank(
builder: (context) => const Center(
child: FlutterDeckCodeHighlight(
code: '''
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_deck/flutter_deck.dart';
class CodeHighlightSlide extends FlutterDeckSlideWidget {
const CodeHighlightSlide()
: super(
configuration: const FlutterDeckSlideConfiguration(
route: '/code-highlight',
header: FlutterDeckHeaderConfiguration(title: 'Code Highlighting'),
),
);
@override
FlutterDeckSlide build(BuildContext context) {
return FlutterDeckSlide.blank(
builder: (context) => const Center(
child: Text('Use FlutterDeckCodeHighlight widget to highlight code!'),
),
);
}
}''',
fileName: 'code_highlight_slide.dart',
language: 'dart',
),
),
);
}
}
By using the FlutterDeck
extensions, you can access the slide deck state and its methods from anywhere in the app:
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
// Retrieve the FlutterDeck instance from the context.
// Or by using the extension method: context.flutterDeck
final flutterDeck = FlutterDeck.of(context);
// Retrieve the FlutterDeckRouter instance for this slide deck.
final router = flutterDeck.router;
// Retrieve the current slide configuration.
final configuration = flutterDeck.configuration;
// Retrieve the global slide deck configuration.
final globalConfiguration = flutterDeck.globalConfiguration;
// Retrieve the speaker info.
final speakerInfo = flutterDeck.speakerInfo;
// Go to the next slide.
flutterDeck.next();
// Go to the previous slide.
flutterDeck.previous();
// Retrieve the current slide number.
final slideNumber = flutterDeck.slideNumber;
// Go to the first slide.
flutterDeck.goToSlide(1);
// Retrieve the current step number.
final stepNumber = flutterDeck.stepNumber;
// Go to the first step.
flutterDeck.goToStep(1);
<...>
}
This package comes with a few predefined transitions that can be used for your slides:
FlutterDeckTransition.none
(default)FlutterDeckTransition.fade
FlutterDeckTransition.scale
FlutterDeckTransition.slide
FlutterDeckTransition.rotation
FlutterDeckTransition.custom
You can specify a transition for the whole slide deck:
FlutterDeckApp(
configuration: const FlutterDeckConfiguration(
transition: FlutterDeckTransition.fade(),
),
<...>
);
Or you can specify a transition for a specific slide:
class TransitionsSlide extends FlutterDeckSlideWidget {
const TransitionsSlide()
: super(
configuration: const FlutterDeckSlideConfiguration(
route: '/transitions',
transition: FlutterDeckTransition.rotation(), // Specify the transition for the slide
),
);
<...>
}
FlutterDeckTransition.custom
accepts a FlutterDeckTransitionBuilder
that can be extended to create a custom transition:
class VerticalTransitionBuilder extends FlutterDeckTransitionBuilder {
const VerticalTransitionBuilder();
@override
Widget build(
BuildContext context,
Animation<double> animation,
Animation<double> secondaryAnimation,
Widget child,
) {
return SlideTransition(
position: animation.drive(
Tween<Offset>(
begin: const Offset(0, 1),
end: Offset.zero,
).chain(CurveTween(curve: Curves.easeIn)),
),
child: child,
);
}
}
class CustomTransitionSlide extends FlutterDeckSlideWidget {
const CustomTransitionSlide()
: super(
configuration: const FlutterDeckSlideConfiguration(
route: '/custom-transition',
transition: FlutterDeckTransition.custom(
transitionBuilder: VerticalTransitionBuilder(),
),
),
);
<...>
}
Steps is a feature that allows you to navigate through a slide, well, step by step. You can access the current step from any widget. This way, you can reveal or hide content, run animations, etc.
To enable steps for a slide, you need to set the steps
property for the slide configuration:
class StepsDemoSlide extends FlutterDeckSlideWidget {
const StepsDemoSlide()
: super(
configuration: const FlutterDeckSlideConfiguration(
route: '/steps-demo',
steps: 2,
),
);
<...>
}
To trigger a rebuild of the widget when the step changes, you can use the FlutterDeckSlideStepsBuilder
widget:
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return FlutterDeckSlideStepsBuilder(
builder: (context, stepNumber) => stepNumber == 1
? const Text('This is the first step.')
: const Text('This is the second step.'),
);
}
Or you can use the FlutterDeckSlideStepsListener
to trigger side effects when the step changes:
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return FlutterDeckSlideStepsListener(
listener: (context, stepNumber) {
print('Current step: $stepNumber');
},
child: const Text('Steps demo slide'),
);
}
Every slide deck comes with a navigation drawer that can be used to navigate through the slide deck. The navigation drawer is automatically generated based on the slide deck configuration. From the drawer, you can change the current theme mode, or go to a specific slide.
This package comes with a mason template that can be used to generate a new slide for the slide deck.
Ensure you have the mason_cli installed:
dart pub global activate mason_cli
Install the flutter_deck_slide template:
# Install locally
mason add flutter_deck_slide
# Install globally
mason add -g flutter_deck_slide
Generate a new slide:
mason make flutter_deck_slide
