License update (#45373)
* Update project.pbxproj files to say Flutter rather than Chromium

Also, the templates now have an empty organization so that we don't cause people to give their apps a Flutter copyright.

* Update the copyright notice checker to require a standard notice on all files

* Update copyrights on Dart files. (This was a mechanical commit.)

* Fix weird license headers on Dart files that deviate from our conventions; relicense Shrine.

Some were already marked "The Flutter Authors", not clear why. Their
dates have been normalized. Some were missing the blank line after the
license. Some were randomly different in trivial ways for no apparent
reason (e.g. missing the trailing period).

* Clean up the copyrights in non-Dart files. (Manual edits.)

Also, make sure templates don't have copyrights.

* Fix some more ORGANIZATIONNAMEs

README.md [Gallery] Fortnightly demo moved from flutter/samples. (#28125) 2019-02-24 11:53:43 +01:00

Fortnightly

A Flutter sample app based on the Material study Fortnightly (a hypothetical, online newspaper.) It showcases print-quality, custom typography, Material Theming, and text-heavy UI design and layout.

For info on the Fortnightly Material Study, see: https://material.io/design/material-studies/fortnightly.html

Goals for this sample

  • Help you understand how to customize and layout text.
  • Provide you with example code for
    • Text
    • A short app bar (the menu button top left.)
    • Avatar images

Widgets / APIs

  • BeveledRectangleBorder
  • BoxConstraints on Container
  • CircleAvatar
  • ExactAssetImage
  • Fonts
  • SafeArea
  • Stack
  • SingleChildScrollView
  • Text
  • TextStyle
  • TextTheme

Notice

  • Theming is passed as a parameter in the constructor of MaterialApp (theme:).
  • SafeArea adds padding around notches and virtual home buttons on screens that have them (like iPhone X+). Here, it protects the ShortAppBar from overlapping with the status bar (time) and makes sure the bottom of the newspaper article has padding beneath it if necessary.
  • The entire newspaper article is wrapped in a SingleChildScrollView widget which ensures that the entire article can be viewed no matter what the screen's size or orientation is.
  • The Text widget with text ' ¬ ' has a TextStyle that changes one parameter of an inherited TextStyle using `.apply()``.
  • The Text widget with text 'Connor Eghan' has a TextStyle created explicitly instead of inheriting from theming.
  • You can break up long strings in your source files by putting them on multiple lines.
  • Fonts are imported with multiple files expressing their weights (Bold, Light, Medium, Regular) but are accessed with a FontWeight value like FontWeight.w800 for Merriweather-Bold.ttf.
