Feedback class abstract final

Provides platform-specific acoustic and/or haptic feedback for certain actions.

For example, to play the Android-typically click sound when a button is tapped, call forTap. For the Android-specific vibration when long pressing an element, call forLongPress. Alternatively, you can also wrap your GestureDetector.onTap or GestureDetector.onLongPress callback in wrapForTap or wrapForLongPress to achieve the same (see example code below).

All methods in this class are usually called from within a StatelessWidget.build method or from a State's methods as you have to provide a BuildContext.

To trigger platform-specific feedback before executing the actual callback:
link
class WidgetWithWrappedHandler extends StatelessWidget {
  const WidgetWithWrappedHandler({super.key});

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return GestureDetector(
      onTap: Feedback.wrapForTap(_onTapHandler, context),
      onLongPress: Feedback.wrapForLongPress(_onLongPressHandler, context),
      child: const Text('X'),
    );
  }

  void _onTapHandler() {
    // Respond to tap.
  }

  void _onLongPressHandler() {
    // Respond to long press.
  }
}

Alternatively, you can also call forTap or forLongPress directly within your tap or long press handler:
link
class WidgetWithExplicitCall extends StatelessWidget {
  const WidgetWithExplicitCall({super.key});

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return GestureDetector(
      onTap: () {
        // Do some work (e.g. check if the tap is valid)
        Feedback.forTap(context);
        // Do more work (e.g. respond to the tap)
      },
      onLongPress: () {
        // Do some work (e.g. check if the long press is valid)
        Feedback.forLongPress(context);
        // Do more work (e.g. respond to the long press)
      },
      child: const Text('X'),
    );
  }
}
