Such a mundane task.

Though as Dart is a statically-typed language, this is more nuanced than one may think.

Remember this thread about how to create a chat with message bubbles?

Well, I found a simpler and more performant solution.

Let's get back to basics. 🧡

What we want to do is to *align* our message bubble to the left or right as needed.

We *could* accomplish this using a Row with MainAxisAlignment.start or MainAxisAlignment.end. Image

This *could* be fixed with LayoutBuilder + ConstrainedBox.
