In a tweet @KhalidWarsa asked how to use the Material ThemeBuilder to get these colors into a Material 3 ColorScheme. While you can, it will not give you code where it is easy make a new scheme via code in #FlutterDev. I suggested using FlexSeedScheme to make the ColorScheme.
1/n Image Here an example resulting light and dark #Flutter ColorScheme. Below we will look at how to get there and possible more tweaks to it. This scheme was made with package FlexSeedScheme where you can control the result using SeedColorScheme.fromSeeds

When opting in on new sub themes, border radius defaults to new Material 3/You guide values and varies by Widget type. Change it to whatever you want for all #Flutter Widgets, 4 dp as before, square or super round, via a single radius value💙😀

Here #FlutterDev connoisseur @biz84 showed us how to make a #Flutter web body like layout, that is centered and width constrained.
What happens if we use this with scrolling content?
What is your solution for it?
Do you have the perfect one? Let us know! Meanwhile let us check out how this works with scrolling content. We keep Andrea's nice login card and add a bunch of other things to it and put it all in a scrolling view. Hmm scrollbars next to the body content, not so nice...

Ever noticed how messy and different the behavior of the #Android system back button or back navigation swipe gesture is on different applications that have a bottom navigation bar or a top tab view? You can do what you like in #Flutter and otherwise too. I found 5 patterns: 🧵👇 1. BACK always pops entire app, regardless of where you are on bottom destination, examples:

- Philips Hue app @philipshuedev
- Dropbox (persists last used)
- MS apps, like Word, Excel, PPT

For me this is the worst pattern, more on why later.
