flutter pub add nil基于插件公开信息、社区数据与项目使用情况整理的选型参考。
nil 包提供了一个极简且性能优化的 widget，当包含在 widget 树中时，它不会渲染任何内容。它适用于需要占位符或条件 widget 的场景，这些 widget 不会增加布局或渲染开销。与 SizedBox.shrink() 或 Container() 不同，nil 对 widget 树的性能没有任何影响，非常适合在外部处理可见性条件的动态 UI 逻辑中使用。它轻量且安全，适用于复杂或频繁更新的 UI。

A simple widget to add in the widget tree when you want to show nothing, with minimal impact on performance.
Sometimes, according to a condition, we want to display nothing. Usually when we can't return null, we would return something like const SizedBox() for example.
This is good, but it has some performance impacts since SizedBox creates a RenderObject. The RenderObject lives in the render tree and some computations are performed on it, even if it paints nothing on the screen.
We can do better, we can have a widget which does not create a RenderObject, while being still valid. The Nil widget is the minimal implementation for this use case. It only creates an Element and does nothing while it's building. Because the optimal way to use it, is to call const Nil(), it also comes with a nil constant that you can use everywhere (which is a const Nil()).
import 'package:nil/nil.dart';
return Builder(
builder: (_) {
if (condition) {
return const MyWidget();
} else {
return nil;
}
},
);
This widget is not intended to be used in widgets accepting multiple children (e.g. Rows, Columns, etc.). The best option is to not add a widget in the list if you don't want it to be displayed. Moreover using a Nil widget in such a case, can have unexpected results.
