Chip class Null safety

A Material Design chip.

Chips are compact elements that represent an attribute, text, entity, or action.

Supplying a non-null onDeleted callback will cause the chip to include a button for deleting the chip.

Its ancestors must include Material, MediaQuery, Directionality, and MaterialLocalizations. Typically all of these widgets are provided by MaterialApp and Scaffold. The label and clipBehavior arguments must not be null.

Chip(
  avatar: CircleAvatar(
    backgroundColor: Colors.grey.shade800,
    child: const Text('AB'),
  ),
  label: const Text('Aaron Burr'),
)
