flutter pub add provider

// Counter with setState (local)
class CounterScreen extends StatefulWidget {
  const CounterScreen({super.key});

  int _count = 0;

  @override

      appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('Counter')),
      body: Center(
        child: Text('$_count', style: const TextStyle(fontSize: 48)),
      ),
      floatingActionButton: FloatingActionButton(
        onPressed: () => setState(() => _count++),
        child: const Icon(Icons.add),

// Provider pattern — shared state

  final List<String> _items = [];
  List<String> get items => List.unmodifiable(_items);

  void add(String item) {

  }

// main.dart — wrap app
ChangeNotifierProvider(
  create: (_) => CartProvider(),
  child: const MyApp(),
)

// Any widget
final cart = context.watch<CartProvider>();
// or read without rebuilding:
context.read<CartProvider>().add('Apple');
