Responsive_Util is a Flutter package that provides a draggable widget for testing responsive design by allowing users to resize its child's bounds interactively. It helps developers visualize how layouts adapt across different screen sizes during development. The widget supports all major platforms, including mobile, web, and desktop, making it ideal for cross-platform UI testing. By enabling real-time adjustments, it streamlines the process of fine-tuning responsive layouts without needing multiple device emulators.
