Treat Implicit & Explicit Animations as a contract for constraints, size, position, rebuild scope, semantics, and platform adaptation—not merely widget syntax. Prefer focused widgets, const constructors, lazy builders, and responsive constraints.
Build a Complete Mental Model
Treat Implicit & Explicit Animations as a contract for constraints, size, position, rebuild scope, semantics, and platform adaptation—not merely widget syntax. Prefer focused widgets, const constructors, lazy builders, and responsive constraints.
Apply It in Production Flutter
Run and test an original Implicit & Explicit Animations example with small and large screens, text scaling, empty/loading/error states, rapid interaction, navigation restoration, and disposal cases. Use flutter analyze, widget tests, and profile mode where relevant.

Lifecycle and Performance Warning
Assuming one screen's sample output proves every rebuild, overflow, accessibility, async, and lifecycle path.
