Bloc and Cubit
Explore the core concepts of Bloc and Cubit widgets in Flutter's BLoC library. Understand how Blocs manage complex states using events and streams, while Cubits provide simpler state management with less boilerplate. Learn their differences and practical use cases for effective state handling.
We'll cover the following...
The flutter_bloc library includes two state management tools: Blocs and Cubits. While they have many similarities, they also have some significant differences. Blocs manage complex state changes, whereas Cubits manage simpler state changes. Cubits contain less boilerplate code than Blocs, making them more suitable for simple use cases.
