Set Up Your Project<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Start by creating two new Dart files, naming them “home.dart” and “about.dart.” These will represent the two screens you’ll navigate between.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Import Dependencies<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In your main.dart<\/code> file, ensure you import the necessary material library and the Dart files you just created:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

import 'package:flutter\/material.dart';\r\nimport 'home.dart';\r\n\r\nvoid main() {\r\n  runApp(MaterialApp(\r\n    home: Scaffold(\r\n      appBar: AppBar(\r\n        title: Text(\"Navigation App\"),\r\n      ),\r\n      body: Home(),\r\n    ),\r\n  ));\r\n}\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Implement Navigation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
In your home.dart<\/code> file, create a Stateful Widget named Home<\/code> with a RaisedButton<\/code>. This button will trigger the navigation to the “About” screen when pressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
import 'package:flutter\/material.dart';\r\nimport 'about.dart';\r\n\r\nclass Home extends StatefulWidget {\r\n  @override\r\n  State<StatefulWidget> createState() {\r\n    return _HomeState();\r\n  }\r\n}\r\n\r\nclass _HomeState extends State<Home> {\r\n  @override\r\n  Widget build(BuildContext context) {\r\n    return Container(\r\n      child: Column(\r\n        children: <Widget>[\r\n          RaisedButton(\r\n            onPressed: () {\r\n              Navigator.push(context, MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) {\r\n                return About();\r\n              }));\r\n            },\r\n            child: Text(\"Go to About Screen\"),\r\n          ),\r\n        ],\r\n      ),\r\n    );\r\n  }\r\n}\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
 Create the About Screen<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
In your about.dart<\/code> file, create a Stateless Widget named About<\/code> with a simple Scaffold<\/code> containing an AppBar<\/code> and a Text<\/code> widget in the body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
import 'package:flutter\/material.dart';\r\n\r\nclass About extends StatelessWidget {\r\n  @override\r\n  Widget build(BuildContext context) {\r\n    return Scaffold(\r\n      appBar: AppBar(\r\n        title: Text(\"About Screen\"),\r\n      ),\r\n      body: Center(\r\n        child: Text(\"This is About Screen\"),\r\n      ),\r\n    );\r\n  }\r\n}\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
With these steps completed, you’re ready to run your Flutter project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
