rename HexagonOffsetGrid to HexagonGridView? #3

Open slovnicki opened 3 years ago

What do you think of that, to be more in line with Flutter naming for GridView.

Maybe some efforts can also be put into making the interface and API very similar to GridView. Just some thoughts...

I don't think it is necessary to add 'View' onto already long widget name. I'm developing another hexagon grid which will be more hexagonal in shape so HexagonGrid is already reserved for it.

About improving API what elements from GridView do you think are needed?

@orlikraf I don't think HexagonGridView is too long. It even has fewer letters than HexagonOffsetGrid :)

I would have to spend more time exploring your package to answer this, but I will definitely do that in the upcoming days as I have quite a use for this package and want to understand it better.

On a side note: is it possible to add border to HexagonWidget? (separate issue can be created for this if it's not implemented yet)

It isn't right now. I have borders on my mind. For the time being you have to prepare a background with border or nest hexagon with content in a bigger one that will be acting as a border. Perfect solution would allow to set border sides separately.
