Flutter Design Patterns: 17 — Bridge

An overview of the Bridge design pattern and its implementation in Dart and Flutter

In the last article, I analysed a structural design pattern that provides a way of changing the skin of an object without changing its guts — Decorator. In this article, I would like to analyse and implement another structural design pattern that tends to be relatively difficult to understand compared to the other design patterns, but at the same time is practical and useful — it is Bridge.
