Music Player: Progress Slider
Part of the Layout That Fits section of Coddy's Flutter journey. Lesson 28 of 30.
A player shows how far into the song you are, and lets you drag to another spot. That is a Slider, whose value lives in state.
Under it go two times: how much has played on the left, the length of the song on the right. A Row with a Spacer between them pushes them to the two ends, so they line up with the ends of the slider on any phone.
const Row(
children: [
Text('0:00'),
Spacer(),
Text('4:00'),
],
)Challenge
EasyAdd the progress bar under the artist:
- a field
double _position = 0.3;in theState - a
SizedBox(height: 16), then aSlidershowing_position, which stores the new value insetStatewhen it moves - a
Rowunder it with1:12at the left edge and3:45at the right edge
Try it yourself
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
void main() {
runApp(const MyApp());
}
class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
const MyApp({super.key});
@override
State<MyApp> createState() => _MyAppState();
}
class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
