New example for `InputChip` that demonstrate how to create/delete them based on user text inputs. The sample application shows a custom text area where user can enter text. After the user has typed and hits _Enter_ the text will be replaced with an `InputChip` that contains that text. Is it possible to continue typing and add more chips in this way. All of them will be placed in a scrollable horizontal row. Also is it possible to have suggestion displayed below the text input field in case the typed text match some of the available suggestions. Issue I'm trying to solve: - https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/128247 **Code structure:** The example app is composed of 2 main components that find places inside `MainScreen`: - `ChipsInput` - `ListView` `ChipsInput` emulates a `TextField` where you can enter text. This text field accepts also a list of values of generic type T (`Topping` in my example), that gets rendered as `InputChip` inside the text field, before the text inserted by the user. This widgets is basically an `InputDecorator` widget that implements `TextInputClient` to get `TextEditingValue` events from the user keyboard. At the end of the input field there is another component, the `TextCursor`, that is displayed just when the user give the focus to the field and emulates the carrets that `TextField` has. There are also some available callbacks that the user can use to capture events in the `ChipsInput` field like: `onChanged`, `onChipTapped`, `onSubmitted` and `onTextChanged`. This last callback is used to build a list of suggestion that will be placed just below the `ChipsInput` field inside the `ListView`.
Flutter is Google's SDK for crafting beautiful, fast user experiences for mobile, web, and desktop from a single codebase. Flutter works with existing code, is used by developers and organizations around the world, and is free and open source.
Documentation

Terms of service
The Flutter tool may occasionally download resources from Google servers. By downloading or using the Flutter SDK, you agree to the Google Terms of Service: https://policies.google.com/terms
For example, when installed from GitHub (as opposed to from a prepackaged
archive), the Flutter tool will download the Dart SDK from Google servers
immediately when first run, as it is used to execute the flutter tool itself.
This will also occur when Flutter is upgraded (e.g. by running the flutter upgrade command).
About Flutter
We think Flutter will help you create beautiful, fast apps, with a productive, extensible and open development model, whether you're targeting iOS or Android, web, Windows, macOS, Linux or embedding it as the UI toolkit for a platform of your choice.
Beautiful user experiences
We want to enable designers to deliver their full creative vision without being forced to water it down due to limitations of the underlying framework. Flutter's layered architecture gives you control over every pixel on the screen and its powerful compositing capabilities let you overlay and animate graphics, video, text, and controls without limitation. Flutter includes a full set of widgets that deliver pixel-perfect experiences whether you're building for iOS (Cupertino) or other platforms (Material), along with support for customizing or creating entirely new visual components.
Fast results
Flutter is fast. It's powered by the same hardware-accelerated 2D graphics library that underpins Chrome and Android: Skia. We architected Flutter to support glitch-free, jank-free graphics at the native speed of your device. Flutter code is powered by the world-class Dart platform, which enables compilation to 32-bit and 64-bit ARM machine code for iOS and Android, as well as JavaScript for the web and Intel x64 for desktop devices.
Productive development
Flutter offers stateful hot reload, allowing you to make changes to your code and see the results instantly without restarting your app or losing its state.
Extensible and open model
Flutter works with any development tool (or none at all), and also includes editor plug-ins for both Visual Studio Code and IntelliJ / Android Studio. Flutter provides tens of thousands of packages to speed your development, regardless of your target platform. And accessing other native code is easy, with support for both FFI (on Android, on iOS, on macOS, and on Windows) as well as platform-specific APIs.
Flutter is a fully open-source project, and we welcome contributions. Information on how to get started can be found in our contributor guide.
