    // Smart watches
    ScreenSize.xs: 310.00,
    // Small phones (5c)
    ScreenSize.sm: 576.00,
    // Medium phones
    ScreenSize.md: 768.00,
    // Large phones (iPhone X)
    ScreenSize.lg: 992.00,
    // Tablets
    ScreenSize.xl: 1200.00,
    // Laptops
    ScreenSize.ul: 2000.00,
    // Desktops and TVs 4K
  };

Grid Usage

This plugin have 3 major grid elements:

• ResponsiveContainer: Container to all page elements, such as Rows and Columns, centralizing the content and beeing limited to a maximum width size

ResponsiveContainer(

  // Determines the container's limit size
  widthLimit: ResponsiveScreen.limits[ScreenSize.lg],
  margin: EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 10),
  
  children: <Widget>[
  
    ResponsiveRow(),
    ResponsiveRow(),
    ResponsiveRow(),
    
  ]
)

• ResponsiveRow: Container wich contains many columns or even other widget. OBS: Its not necessary to wrap inner widgets into a ResponsiveCol object.

ResponsiveRow(

  margin: EdgeInsets.only(top: 20, bottom: 5),
  
  children: <Widget>[
  
    ResponsiveCol(),
    ResponsiveCol(),
    ResponsiveCol(),
    
    Text('It´s fine to use another widget directly inside a ResponsiveRow')
  ]
),

• ResponsiveCol:

ResponsiveCol(
  margin: EdgeInsets.all(10),
  padding: EdgeInsets.all(10),
  backgroundColor: Colors.blue,
  gridSizes: {
      ScreenSize.xs : 4,
      ScreenSize.sm : 3,
      ScreenSize.lg : 2,
      ScreenSize.xl : 1,
  },
  children: [
      Text('Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit')
  ]
)
