This post includes a form with fields such as ( Name, Phone, Email). All these fields are placed in a stepper widget.
Every step has 2 buttons : Continue and Cancel.
Clicking continue, leads to next step while clicking cancel goes to previous step.
On every form field a validator is present
There are 3 main functions in steppers :
- onStepContinue
- onStepCancel
- onStepTapped

Finally, if every validation is correct, then you see an alert dialog with the details entered as :
If something is found wrong on any step, a snackbar is shown…Else, formState.save() is called and as stated above alert dialog is shown.
