Music Player: Song Info
Part of the Layout That Fits section of Coddy's Flutter journey. Lesson 27 of 30.
Under the art go the song and the artist. Like the name on a business card, the song is the line the eye should find first: big and bold. The artist is a quieter grey line under it.
The art is a large shape and the title a small one, so they need room between them, more than the title and the artist, which belong together. Spacing that groups things is what makes a screen easy to read.
Challenge
EasyUnder the art, add:
- a
SizedBox(height: 24) Midnight Drive, size24and bold- a
SizedBox(height: 4) The Night OwlsinColors.grey
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(
