Icons

Part of the Your First App section of Coddy's Flutter journey. Lesson 25 of 32.

Flutter comes with more than a thousand ready icons. Show one with the Icon widget and a name from Icons:

Icon(Icons.home)
Icon(Icons.search)
Icon(Icons.settings)

Many icons come in several versions. Icons.star is a filled star, and Icons.star_border is only its outline. Icons are drawn like letters, so they stay sharp at any size.

Challenge

Easy

Next to Favorites there is a star. Make it a filled heart: Icons.favorite.

Try it yourself

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(const MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyApp({super.key});

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false,
      home: Scaffold(
        body: Center(
          child: Row(
            mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
            children: [
              Icon(Icons.star),
              SizedBox(width: 8),
              Text('Favorites', style: TextStyle(fontSize: 24)),
            ],
          ),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}
