Since we used Modifiers in previous sections of Learning Flutter in Fun Way, this is a full-fledged guide on using Class Modifiers. This will guide you in their definitions and how to use them in real-world scenarios.

When building Flutter apps, understanding class modifiers in Dart is crucial for writing clean, scalable, and maintainable code. Dart provides several class modifiers (abstract, base, final, sealed, interface, mixin, and mixin class) that help define how classes interact, inherit, and share functionality.

This article explores each modifier in-depth with real-world examples, highlighting their key differences and best use cases. Whether you’re creating reusable UI components, enforcing strict contracts, or improving code organization, mastering these modifiers will significantly enhance your Flutter development skills.

Class Modifiers, what are they?

In Flutter (Dart), class modifiers are keywords used to control how a class can be used, extended, instantiated, or mixed in. They define constraints on a class’s behavior and help enforce best practices in object-oriented programming.
