Box Shadow Converter
Convert CSS box-shadow into Flutter BoxShadow code
Just paste your box-shadow here, we'll figure it out.
.box { box-shadow:}Effortlessly convert your CSS box shadow code into Flutter format in seconds!
Implementing designs into Flutter often comes with its set of nuances. One of those subtle yet time-consuming tasks is dealing with shadows. As developers, we frequently receive designs from tools like Figma, where shadow specifications are provided in a CSS-like format. It should be a straightforward process, yet the difference in syntax and structure between CSS and Flutter can make this simple task feel like an unexpected chore. Fluttershadow.com is designed to bridge that gap, ensuring that you can swiftly move from design to code, without the usual interruptions. Let this tool handle the conversion, so you can focus on crafting exceptional Flutter applications.
Using the Converter
You can input your CSS box-shadow code either by typing it directly or by pasting it from your clipboard. As soon as the text is pasted, the conversion process will be triggered automatically. If you prefer to type your CSS code, you can initiate the conversion by pressing the “Enter” key or by simply clicking the “Convert” button.
After the conversion, the generated Flutter BoxShadow code will be displayed below the input. To copy this Flutter code to your clipboard, simply click the “Copy” button. This works without having to highlight the text beforehand. To see this feature in action, try entering a sample CSS box-shadow, like: 0px 2px 4px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1).
Our converter provides a breakdown of how the CSS input was interpreted, helping you to understand the conversion and allowing you to make any desired adjustments to the output.
FAQ
How precise does my CSS input need to be?
This tool is designed for quick and hassle-free conversion, which means it is quite forgiving with the input it receives. Whether your CSS box-shadow code is perfectly formatted or not, the tool will do its best to understand and convert it into the corresponding Flutter BoxShadow code. Our goal is to remove unexpected chores from your development workflow and let you focus on what really matters – building amazing Flutter apps. So, go ahead and paste in your CSS, even if it's a quick copy from your design tool like Figma; our converter is here to handle it.
Which units does this tool accept for length values?
Our tool is optimized for working with CSS length values specified in pixels (px). This is to ensure the most straightforward and accurate conversion into Flutter BoxShadow code. If your CSS box-shadow code contains length values in units other than pixels (such as em, rem, %, etc.), the tool will gracefully ignore those values and proceed with the conversion using any pixel values it finds. This is in line with our goal to make the tool efficient and focused, minimizing any unnecessary complexities in your Flutter development workflow.
Which CSS color formats does this tool support?
Our tool is optimized to convert CSS color values specified in hex (#FFFFFF), RGB (rgb(255,255,255)), RGBA (rgba(255,255,255,0.9)), and named colors (red, blue, etc.). We focused on supporting these formats as they are the most commonly used in design handoffs and can be directly translated into Flutter’s color system. If your CSS box-shadow code contains color values in formats other than these (such as hsl, hsla, etc.), the tool will gracefully ignore those values and proceed with the conversion using any supported formats it finds. This ensures a focused and efficient conversion process that aligns with the color specification methods most commonly used in Flutter development.
Does this tool support the inset keyword from CSS?
No, this tool does not support the conversion of the inset keyword from CSS box-shadow.
Are there any limits on how many box-shadows I can convert at once?
Yes, there is a limit. This tool is designed to convert only one box-shadow at a time.
Is this tool free to use?
Yes, this tool is completely free to use. We built it to simplify the process of converting CSS box shadows to Flutter for developers around the world.
