BuildContext Extension

It is a simplification of Theme.of(context), MediaQuery.of(context) and Navigator.

   
    @override
    Widget build(BuildContext context) {
      final BuildColor color = context.color; //DOES THIS: BuildColor(context)
      final BuildMedia media = context.media; //DOES THIS: BuildMedia(context)

      return Container(
        color: color.primary,    //DOES THIS: Theme.of(context).primaryColor
        width: media.width / 2,  //DOES THIS: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width / 2
        height: media.height / 2 //DOES THIS: MediaQuery.of(context).size.height / 2
      );
    }


    context.theme //DOES THIS: Theme.of(context)
    context.textTheme //DOES THIS: Theme.of(context).textTheme

    context.goBack(); //DOES THIS: Navigator.pop(context);
    context.to(page); //DOES THIS: Navigator.push(context, MaterialPageRoute(builder: (_) => page));
    ... //+5 Navigator Locations

Console Color Log

It is a personalization for console log.

    "I'm a weird boy ¯\\(°_o)/¯",
    PrintColorStyle(
      prefix: "Hola baby!",
      foreground: Colors.green,
      background: Colors.black,
      underline: true,
      bold: true,
      italic: true,
    ),
  );
  printColor(
    "Controller disposed!",

      bold: true,
      prefix: "HELPERS",
      foreground: Colors.orangeAccent,
    ),
  );
