Suggests using a Center widget instead of the Align widget with no passed arguments.

Example​

❌ Bad:

class SomeWidget {
  Widget build() {
    // LINT: Prefer 'Center' over the 'Align' widget with 'Alignment.center'.
    return Align();
  }
}

✅ Good:

class SomeWidget {
  Widget build() {
    return Align(alignment: Alignment.left);
  }
}

class SomeWidget {
  Widget build() {
    return Center();
  }
}
