Deep Dive Into Flutter Theming
summary
Compares every ThemeData constructor and shows that ColorScheme.fromSeed (or a fully defined ColorScheme) is the reliable starting point, while swatch-based and legacy constructors (about ten variants) produce surprising, ugly results; details dark-theme bugs (wrong primary text, divider and tab colors) and fixes by copying ThemeData-from logic. Demonstrates using Google’s material_color_utilities tonal palettes, how harmonize/blend adjusts custom semantic colors, and ships a tool FlexColorScheme plus a Teams Playground app that generates copy‑paste theme code (package v1.1 released).
