prefer-for-loop-in-children

added in: 1.16.0

style

Suggests using for-loop in arguments that accept a list of widgets.

Example

❌ Bad:

Column(
  // LINT
  children: exampleList.map((example) => const Text(example)).toList(),
);

Column(
  // LINT
  children: [
    ...exampleList.map((example) => const Text(example)).toList(),
  ],
);

Column(
  // LINT
  children: List.generate(
    exampleList.length,
    (index) => Text(exampleList[index]),
  ),
);

Column(
  // LINT
  children: exampleList.fold([], (list, example) {
    list.add(Text(example));
    return list;
  }),
);

✅ Good:

Column(
  children: [
    for (final example in exampleList) Text(example),
  ],
);
