tweet_ui

Flutter Tweet UI - Flutter package that is inspired by twitter-kit-android. Works on iOS and Android.

Getting Started

To use this package add it to the pubspec.yaml file:

tweet_ui: <latest_version>

import it:

import 'package:tweet_ui/tweet_ui.dart';

If you want to show tweets with videos: check the video_player installation site.

finally, create a TweetView from a JSON:

TweetView.fromTweet(
    Tweet.fromRawJson(
        jsonFromTwitterAPI
        // {"created_at": "Mon Nov 12 13:00:38 +0000 2018", "id": 1061967001177018368, ...
    )
);

or a CompactTweetView,

CompactTweetView.fromTweet(
    Tweet.fromRawJson(
        jsonFromTwitterAPI
        // {"created_at": "Mon Nov 12 13:00:38 +0000 2018", "id": 1061967001177018368, ...
    )
);

or a EmbeddedTweetView.

EmbeddedTweetView.fromTweet(
    Tweet.fromRawJson(
        jsonFromTwitterAPI
        // {"created_at": "Mon Nov 12 13:00:38 +0000 2018", "id": 1061967001177018368, ...
    )
  darkMode: true,
)

There is also a special QuoteTweetView that is embedded in a TweetView or a CompactTweetView or a EmbeddedTweetView. This depends if a Tweet has a quoted_status value in the JSON.

What tweet view should I create?

TweetView and CompactTweetView are more customisable, but EmbeddedTweetView looks more modern. Check the screenshots below.
