Habit Tracker: Tick a Day

Part of the Projects section of Coddy's Flutter journey. Lesson 30 of 36.

Tap a circle to tick the day, tap it again to clear it. The habits live in the screen's state, but the circle is drawn deep inside a HabitCard. The tap has to travel up to where the data is.

That is lifting state up with callbacks. The screen owns the change:

void _toggle(Habit habit, int day) {
  setState(() {
    habit.days[day] = !habit.days[day];
  });
}

It hands each card a function, onToggle: (day) => _toggle(habit, day). The card's type for it is void Function(int day), a function that takes the day's number. Each circle gets a plain VoidCallback, onTap: () => onToggle(i), and wraps its Container in a GestureDetector that calls it.

!habit.days[day] flips a bool: true becomes false and back, so one function both ticks and clears.

Challenge

Hard

Tick days:

add the _toggle method to the screen's state
give HabitCard a required onToggle of type void Function(int day), and pass (day) => _toggle(habit, day)
give DayCircle a required VoidCallback onTap, wrap its Container in a GestureDetector, and pass () => onToggle(i)

Try it yourself

      home: const HabitScreen(),
    );
  }
}

const List<String> dayNames = ['Mon', 'Tue', 'Wed', 'Thu', 'Fri', 'Sat', 'Sun'];

  Habit(this.name, this.days);

            ),
          ],

  }
}

class DayCircle extends StatelessWidget {
