Flutter Design Skill

Flutter Design Overview

• This skill provides the Comic style UI design guideline and code.
• It ensures that the Flutter application will have Comic UI style.

When to Use

• Use this skill when the user requests to design or improve the UI of a Flutter application.
• Use this skill when the user mention Comic style UI design.

Design Guidelines

• Refer to the comic-theme.md for detailed design guidelines and code examples.

Comic Design Rules

• Follow these critical design rules when implementing the Comic style UI in Flutter.

• Reusable Flutter Widgets: Always re-use or create a re-usable widgets to not repeat code.

  • For example, create a ./lib/widgets/theme/ComicButton widget instead of styling each button individually.
  • all of the Comic widgets must be saved in ./lib/widgets/theme/comic_<component_name>.dart
  • It must create re-usable widgets for common UI elements like buttons, cards, text fields, etc.

• Comic Design: Always follow these Comic design principles:

  • Border:
    • Standard elements: 2.0 thickness
    • List-based widgets (ListTile, compact cards): 1.5 thickness for lighter visual weight
  • No shadow: Always no shadows
  • No elevation: Always zero elevation
  • Outline: Use outline color for borders
  • Rounded corners: The border radius must be 12 for large elements, 8 for other elements.
  • Colors: Use the Theme Primary Color for primary elements.
    • Use the Theme Secondary Color for secondary elements.
    • Use the Theme Surface Color for cards and containers.
    • Use the Theme Background Color for the surface color.
    • Use the Theme onSurface Color for text and icons on surface color.
  • Fonts: Use the Theme Text Styles for all text elements.
    • Use bodyLarge for regular text.
    • Use titleMedium for titles.
    • Use labelLarge for buttons.

• Spacing: Use multiples of 8 (8, 16, 24, 32, etc.)

Theme Design Guidelines

CRITICAL FLUTTER RULES:

• Use Theme ONLY: Always use Theme.of(context) for colors, fonts, and styles. NEVER hardcode them.

❌ NEVER DO:

Text('Login')  // Hardcoded text
color: Colors.blue  // Hardcoded color
fontSize: 16  // Hardcoded size
border: Border.all()  // Borders not allowed
elevation: 4  // Must be 0
ElevatedButton(child: Text('Click', style: TextStyle(...)))  // Inline style overrides Theme

✅ ALWAYS DO:

Text(T.login)  // i18n translation
color: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.primary  // Theme color
style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.bodyLarge  // Theme text style
elevation: 0  // Flat design
ElevatedButton(child: Text(T.click))  // Let Theme handle styling

ComicButton System

Concept & Intent

The ComicButton system is a unified, reusable button component library that implements the Comic design language across the entire Flutter application. Instead of styling buttons individually with inline styles, all buttons use the ComicButton base widget or its variants.

Key Benefits:

• Consistency: All buttons share the same Comic design DNA (2px border, no shadow, rounded corners)
• Flexibility: Three design options (rounded, padding, textSize) allow creating any button style
• Maintainability: Change the button style in one place, update everywhere
• Theme Integration: Automatically uses Theme colors and text styles

Core Design Principles

All ComicButton variants follow these Comic design rules:

• Border: 2.0px thickness with outline color
• Elevation: Always 0 (flat design, no shadows)
• Corners: Rounded with borderRadius 12 (normal) or fully rounded (full/pill)
• Colors: Theme-based (surface, primary, secondary)
• Typography: Theme text styles (bodyLarge, titleMedium, bodyMedium)
• Spacing: Padding in multiples of 8

Design Options

Every ComicXxxButton variant supports three design option enums:

ComicButtonRounded

Controls the corner shape of the button.

ComicButtonPadding

Controls the internal padding of the button.

ComicButtonTextSize

Controls the text size inside the button.

Button Variants

ComicButton (Base)

The foundation widget with neutral colors (surface background, onSurface text).

// Standard button
ComicButton(
  onPressed: () => doSomething(),
  child: Text(Lo.of(context)!.action),
)

// Large login button (pill shape)
ComicButton(
  onPressed: () => login(),
  rounded: ComicButtonRounded.full,
  padding: ComicButtonPadding.large,
  textSize: ComicButtonTextSize.large,
  child: Text(Lo.of(context)!.login),
)

ComicPrimaryButton

Primary action button using Theme primary color.

ComicPrimaryButton(
  onPressed: () => submit(),
  rounded: ComicButtonRounded.full,
  padding: ComicButtonPadding.large,
  textSize: ComicButtonTextSize.large,
  child: Text(Lo.of(context)!.submit),
)

ComicSecondaryButton

Secondary action button using Theme secondary color.

ComicSecondaryButton(
  onPressed: () => cancel(),
  padding: ComicButtonPadding.small,
  textSize: ComicButtonTextSize.small,
  child: Text(Lo.of(context)!.cancel),
)

Quick Reference

File Location

All ComicButton widgets are defined in: ./lib/widgets/theme/comic_button.dart

List-Based Widgets Design

For list-based content such as ListTile and Compact Cards:

Design Principles

• Border: Use 1.0 thickness (thinner than standard 2.0) for lighter visual weight in compact lists
• Border Radius: 12 for rounded corners
• Elevation: 0 (no shadow)
• Margin: EdgeInsets.zero (parent controls spacing)
• Colors: Use Theme colors (surface, outline, onSurface)

Key Features

Card(
  elevation: 0, // Comic Design: no shadow
  margin: EdgeInsets.zero, // No margin (parent controls spacing)
  color: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.surface,
  // Comic Design: thinner border with rounded corners for compact list
  shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
    borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(12),
    side: BorderSide(
      color: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.outline,
      width: 1.0, // Thinner border for list items
    ),
  ),
  child: InkWell(
    onTap: onTap,
    borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(12), // Match card radius for ripple
    child: // ... content
  ),
)

ComicModalBottomSheet

Concept & Intent

The ComicModalBottomSheet is a reusable modal bottom sheet component that implements the Comic design language. It provides a consistent way to display modal content from the bottom of the screen with Comic-style rounded top corners, proper spacing, and an integrated drag handle.

Design Principles

• Border Radius: 12.0 for top-left and top-right corners (creates Comic-style rounded top)
• Border Width: 2.0 thickness on top, left, and right sides (no border on bottom)
• Elevation: 0 (flat design, no shadows)
• Colors: Theme-based (surface background, outline border)
• Spacing: Consistent padding using multiples of 8
• Drag Handle: Custom drag handle integrated inside the container (32px × 4px)

Usage

// Show Comic Modal Bottom Sheet with integrated drag handle
showModalBottomSheet(
  context: context,
  backgroundColor: Colors.transparent, // Comic Design: transparent for custom styling
  elevation: 0, // Comic Design: no shadow
  builder: (context) {
    return Container(
      decoration: BoxDecoration(
        color: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.surface,
        borderRadius: const BorderRadius.only(
          topLeft: Radius.circular(12.0), // Comic Design: rounded top corners
          topRight: Radius.circular(12.0),
        ),
        border: Border(
          top: BorderSide(
            color: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.outline,
            width: 2.0, // Comic Design: 2.0 border
          ),
          left: BorderSide(
            color: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.outline,
            width: 2.0,
          ),
          right: BorderSide(
            color: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.outline,
            width: 2.0,
          ),
          // No bottom border
        ),
      ),
      child: Column(
        mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
        children: [
          // Drag handle indicator
          // Comic Design: 8px spacing from top
          const SizedBox(height: 8),
          Container(
            width: 32,
            height: 4,
            decoration: BoxDecoration(
              color: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.onSurfaceVariant.withValues(alpha: 0.4),
              borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(2),
            ),
          ),
          const SizedBox(height: 8),
          // Your content here (wrapped in Flexible if scrollable)
          Flexible(
            child: ListView(
              shrinkWrap: true,
              children: [
                // Your list items
              ],
            ),
          ),
        ],
      ),
    );
  },
);

Key Features

• Rounded Top Corners: 12.0 radius on top-left and top-right for Comic style
• Selective Borders: Border on top, left, and right only (no bottom border)
• Theme Integration: Uses Theme colors for surface and outline
• No Shadow: Elevation set to 0 for flat design
• Transparent Background: Parent backgroundColor set to transparent for custom styling
• Integrated Drag Handle: Custom drag handle (32×4px) with proper spacing inside the container
• Flexible Layout: Uses Column with MainAxisSize.min and Flexible for proper sizing

Drag Handle Specifications

• Size: 32px wide × 4px tall
• Color: onSurfaceVariant with 40% opacity
• Border Radius: 2px for rounded corners
• Spacing: 8px top and bottom (multiples of 8)
• Position: Inside the container, above the content

Best Practices

• Always use backgroundColor: Colors.transparent in showModalBottomSheet
• Apply elevation: 0 to maintain flat design
• Use Theme colors for consistency
• Wrap the Container's child in a Column with mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min
• Add the drag handle as the first element in the Column
• Use Flexible wrapper for scrollable content (ListView, GridView, etc.)
• Use shrinkWrap: true for ListView to allow proper sizing
• Add appropriate spacing (multiples of 8) around content

Comic AppBar Design

Concept & Intent

The Comic AppBar implements the Comic design language for app bars and header sections. It provides consistent styling with a characteristic 1.0px bottom border using the outlineVariant color, creating a subtle visual separation between the header and content areas that matches the bottom navigation bar style.

Design Principles

• Border: 1.0px bottom border with outlineVariant color (matches bottom navigation bar)
• Typography: Use Theme titleLarge text style for titles
• Height: Standard AppBar height (56px) or custom heights for special cases
• Colors: Theme-based (surface background, outlineVariant border, onSurface text)
• No Elevation: Always 0 (flat design, no shadows)

Usage Patterns

Pattern 1: Standard Scaffold AppBar

Use this pattern when you have a Scaffold widget with an appBar property.

Scaffold(
  appBar: AppBar(
    title: Text(T.editProfile, style: theme.textTheme.titleLarge),
    bottom: PreferredSize(
      preferredSize: const Size.fromHeight(1),
      child: Container(height: 1, color: scheme.outlineVariant),
    ),
  ),
  body: // Your content here
)

Key Features:

• Uses standard AppBar widget
• Title uses titleLarge text style from Theme
• Bottom border achieved using PreferredSize with 1.0px height Container
• Border color uses Theme outlineVariant color (matches bottom navigation bar)

Pattern 2: Custom Header (Without Scaffold)

Use this pattern when you need an app bar-like header without a Scaffold (e.g., in special layouts, custom scrolling views, or nested navigation).

SafeArea(
  child: Container(
    height: 56, // Standard AppBar height
    padding: const EdgeInsets.only(right: 4, left: 12),
    decoration: BoxDecoration(
      border: Border(
        bottom: BorderSide(
          // Comic Design: 1.0px border with outlineVariant color (matches bottom nav)
          color: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.outlineVariant,
          width: 1.0,
        ),
      ),
    ),
    child: Row(
      children: [
        // Title
        Expanded(
          child: Text(
            T.pageTitle,
            style: Theme.of(context)
                .textTheme
                .titleLarge
                ?.copyWith(fontWeight: FontWeight.w600),
            overflow: TextOverflow.ellipsis,
          ),
        ),
        // Action buttons (optional)
        IconButton(
          icon: const FaIcon(FontAwesomeIcons.someIcon),
          onPressed: () {
            // Action handler
          },
        ),
      ],
    ),
  ),
)

Key Features:

• Uses Container with bottom border decoration
• Wrapped in SafeArea for proper top spacing
• Height set to 56px (standard AppBar height)
• Padding adjusts for left/right spacing
• Border applied only to bottom (1.0px with outlineVariant color, matches bottom navigation bar)
• Title uses titleLarge text style
• Supports action buttons via IconButton or other widgets

Design Specifications

When to Use Each Pattern

Use Pattern 1 (Scaffold AppBar) when:

• Building a standard screen with Scaffold
• Need standard AppBar features (back button, actions, etc.)
• Want Flutter's built-in AppBar behavior

Use Pattern 2 (Custom Header) when:

• Working without a Scaffold widget
• Building custom scrolling layouts
• Creating nested navigation structures
• Need more control over header layout and behavior
• Implementing complex header interactions (e.g., dropdown menus, category pickers)

Example: Header with Action Buttons

SafeArea(
  child: Container(
    height: 56,
    padding: const EdgeInsets.only(right: 4, left: 12),
    decoration: BoxDecoration(
      border: Border(
        bottom: BorderSide(
          color: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.outlineVariant,
          width: 1.0,
        ),
      ),
    ),
    child: Row(
      children: [
        Expanded(
          child: Text(
            T.categories,
            style: Theme.of(context)
                .textTheme
                .titleLarge
                ?.copyWith(fontWeight: FontWeight.w600),
            overflow: TextOverflow.ellipsis,
          ),
        ),
        IconButton(
          icon: const FaIcon(FontAwesomeIcons.penToSquare),
          onPressed: () {
            // Create new item
          },
        ),
        IconButton(
          icon: const FaIcon(FontAwesomeIcons.chevronDown),
          onPressed: () {
            // Show dropdown menu
          },
        ),
      ],
    ),
  ),
)

Best Practices

• Always use Theme colors (outlineVariant for border, titleLarge for text)
• Always set border width to 1.0px for consistency with bottom navigation bar
• Always apply border only to the bottom (not top/left/right)
• Always use SafeArea when implementing custom headers
• Never add elevation or shadows
• Use overflow: TextOverflow.ellipsis for long titles
• Use multiples of 8 for padding and spacing
• Maintain 56px height for consistency with standard AppBar

• Flexibility: Extensive customization options while maintaining Comic design principles
• Maintainability: Change the modal style in one place, update everywhere
• Theme Integration: Automatically uses Theme colors and text styles
• Easy to Use: Helper function showComicModal() simplifies modal creation

Design Principles

All ComicModal instances follow these Comic design rules:

• Border: 2.0px thickness on top, left, and right sides (no bottom border) with outline color
• Elevation: Always 0 (flat design, no shadows)
• Corners: Rounded top corners with borderRadius 12
• Colors: Theme-based (surface background, outline border)

Design Specifications

When to Use ComicModal

Use ComicModal when:

• Displaying action sheets or option menus
• Showing forms that slide up from bottom
• Presenting filters or settings panels
• Displaying contextual content that doesn't need full screen
• Creating slide-up confirmation dialogs
• Showing lists of selectable items
• Implementing bottom sheets for mobile-first design

Use ComicDialog instead when:

• Need center-screen alert/confirmation
• Content is critical and requires immediate attention
• Blocking user interaction is necessary
• Content is brief and doesn't benefit from bottom positioning

Best Practices

• Always use showComicModal() helper function instead of showModalBottomSheet() directly
• Always wrap modal content in ComicModal widget for consistent styling
• Set isScrollControlled: true when content might be taller than half screen
• Use maxHeightFactor to limit modal height for very long content
• Set shrinkWrap: true for ListView/GridView inside modal
• Wrap content in Column with mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min for auto-sizing
• Use contentPadding for consistent spacing or control padding in your content
• Pass result via Navigator.pop(context, value) to return data to caller
• Use Theme colors and text styles for all content
• Test with SafeArea enabled (default) to ensure proper spacing on all devices
• Consider disabling drag handle (showDragHandle: false) for simple, non-scrollable content

Comparison: Before vs After

❌ Before (Manual Styling)

// Old style: Manual border/styling in every modal
showModalBottomSheet(
  context: context,
  builder: (context) {
    return Container(
      decoration: BoxDecoration(
        color: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.surface,
        borderRadius: BorderRadius.only(
          topLeft: Radius.circular(12),
          topRight: Radius.circular(12),
        ),
        border: Border(
          top: BorderSide(color: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.outline, width: 2),
          left: BorderSide(color: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.outline, width: 2),
          right: BorderSide(color: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.outline, width: 2),
        ),
      ),
      child: // ... complex setup
    );
  },
);

✅ After (Comic Style)

// Comic style: Clean, consistent, reusable
showComicModal(
  context: context,
  builder: (context) => ComicModal(
    child: // ... your content
  ),
);

Comic SnackBar

Concept & Intent

The Comic SnackBar system provides helper functions to display notification messages that follow Comic design principles. Instead of using the standard ScaffoldMessenger.of(context).showSnackBar() with inline styling, use the pre-built Comic SnackBar functions for consistent, theme-based notifications.

Design Principles

All Comic SnackBars follow these design rules:

• Border: 2.0px thickness with semantic colors (green, red, blue, orange)
• Elevation: Always 0 (flat design, no shadows)
• Corners: Rounded with borderRadius 12
• Colors: Semantic colors with lower contrast for softer appearance:
  • Success: Medium green border (#66BB6A) on very light green background (#F1F8F4)
  • Error: Medium red border (#EF5350) on very light red background (#FFF5F5)
  • Info: Medium blue border (#42A5F5) on very light blue background (#F3F8FC)
  • Warning: Medium orange border (#FFA726) on very light orange background (#FFF8F0)
• Typography: Theme bodyMedium text style with medium-tone colored text for comfortable readability
• Spacing: Padding and margins in multiples of 8
• Behavior: Floating style with proper margins

Design Specifications

Comparison: Before vs After

❌ Before (Non-Comic Style)

// Old style: Inline styling, no border, inconsistent
ScaffoldMessenger.of(context).showSnackBar(
  SnackBar(
    content: Text(T.nicknameRequired),
    backgroundColor: Theme.of(context).colorScheme.error,
  ),
);

✅ After (Comic Style)

// Comic style: Consistent design, proper border, theme-based
showComicErrorSnackBar(context, T.nicknameRequired);

Best Practices

• Always use Comic SnackBar functions instead of creating SnackBars manually
• Choose the appropriate function based on message type:
  • Success: showComicSuccessSnackBar
  • Error/Validation: showComicErrorSnackBar
  • Info/Neutral: showComicInfoSnackBar
  • Warning/Caution: showComicWarningSnackBar
• Pass localized text (T.xxx or Lo.xxx) instead of hardcoded strings
• Check mounted before showing SnackBar in async operations
• Never create SnackBars with inline styling or hardcoded colors
