Side Effects with ValueNotifier

Did you know?

By registering a ValueNotifier listener, you can perform various side effects such as:

  • Updating a ScrollController, PageController, AnimationController, etc.
  • Showing a dialog
  • Navigating to another route

Note: This works with ChangeNotifier, too. 💡
