Packages

Installation

flutter pub add uuid
import 'package:uuid/uuid.dart';

const uuid = Uuid();

class Expense {
  // constructor function with named parameters
  Expense({required this.title, required this.amount, required this.date})
      : id = uuid.v4(); // initializer list generating unique ids
  final String id;
  final String title;
  final double amount;
  final DateTime date;

flutter pub add intl

Refactoring of the modal bottom sheet

The following class shows a simple example of a TextField Widget

To add a visible label, one needs to add the decoration parameter which has the InputDecoration() widget that gives way to the label attribute

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

class NewExpense extends StatefulWidget {
  const NewExpense({super.key});

  @override
  State<NewExpense> createState() => _NewExpenseState();
}

class _NewExpenseState extends State<NewExpense> {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return const Padding(
      padding: EdgeInsets.all(16),
      child: Column(
        children: [
          TextField(
            maxLength: 60, // max length of characters to type
            decoration: InputDecoration(
              label: Text('Expense Title'),
            ),
          ),
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
}
