flutter mobile apps - how to create Text with Read More Read Less Buttons
When displaying long text in your app, you might want to show only the first few words and hide the rest of the content to save space. This is not only commonly seen on mobile devices (with small screens) but also on the web. A typical design for this use case is to add Read More / Read Less buttons.

In the beginning, the user can only see a few lines of text . When the Read More button is tapped, the full text will be exposed. The Read Less button is used to collapse the expanded content so that the screen will be neat as before.

The process of expanding and collapsing text will be accompanied by animation to help increase the user experience. We’ll build a custom widget named TextWrapper (that is reusable) from scratch.
