/// Spacer creates an adjustable, empty spacer that can be used to tune the
/// spacing between widgets in a [Flex] container, like [Row] or [Column].
///
/// The [Spacer] widget will take up any available space, so setting the
/// [Flex.mainAxisAlignment] on a flex container that contains a [Spacer] to
/// [MainAxisAlignment.spaceAround], [MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween], or
/// [MainAxisAlignment.spaceEvenly] will not have any visible effect: the
/// [Spacer] has taken up all of the additional space, so there is none left to
/// redistribute.
///
/// ## Sample code
///
/// ```dart
/// new Row(
///   children: <Widget>[
///     new Text('Begin'),
///     new Spacer(), // Defaults to a flex of one.
///     new Text('Middle'),
///     // Gives twice the space between Middle and End than Begin and Middle.
///     new Spacer(flex: 2),
///     new Text('End'),
///   ],
/// )
/// ```
///
/// See also:
///
///  * [Row] and [Column], which are the most common containers to use a Spacer
///    in.
///  * [SizedBox], to create a box with a specific size and an optional child.
class Spacer extends StatelessWidget {
  /// Creates a flexible space to insert into a [Flexible] widget.
  ///
  /// The [flex] parameter may not be null or less than one.

        assert(flex > 0),
        super(key: key);

  /// The flex factor to use in determining how much space to take up.
  ///
  /// The amount of space the [Spacer] can occupy in the main axis is determined
  /// by dividing the free space proportionately, after placing the inflexible
  /// children, according to the flex factors of the flexible children.
  ///
  /// Defaults to one.
