In order to draw custom shapes and lines in Flutter, there are basically four things involved:

  1. CustomPaint (It’s the exhibitor who gives you a paper to draw on, and then exhibits what you have drawn) 🖼️
  2. CustomPainter (It’s you! The painter!) 👨‍🎨
  3. Paint (It’s your brush) 🎨🖌️
  4. Canvas (It’s your paper) ⬜

Yes, it’s that simple!
