How do I do the "frosted glass" effect in Flutter?

Solution 1:

You can use the BackdropFilter widget to achieve this effect.

import 'dart:ui';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(new MaterialApp(home: new FrostedDemo()));
}

class FrostedDemo extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return new Scaffold(
      body: new Stack(
        children: <Widget>[
          new ConstrainedBox(
            constraints: const BoxConstraints.expand(),
            child: new FlutterLogo()
          ),
          new Center(
            child: new ClipRect(
              child: new BackdropFilter(
                filter: new ImageFilter.blur(sigmaX: 10.0, sigmaY: 10.0),
                child: new Container(
                  width: 200.0,
                  height: 200.0,
                  decoration: new BoxDecoration(
                    color: Colors.grey.shade200.withOpacity(0.5)
                  ),
                  child: new Center(
                    child: new Text(
                      'Frosted',
                      style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.display3
                    ),
                  ),
                ),
              ),
            ),
          ),
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
}

Solution 2:

I think I don't know the exact meaning of 'Frosted'(If my example didnot work here),

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'dart:ui' as ui;

void main() => runApp(
    MaterialApp(
        title: "Frosted glass",
        home: new HomePage()
    )
);

class HomePage extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return new Scaffold(
      body: new Stack(
        fit: StackFit.expand,
        children: <Widget>[
          generateBluredImage(),
          new Column(
            mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
            children: <Widget>[
              rectShapeContainer(),
            ],
          ),
        ],
      ),
    );
  }

  Widget generateBluredImage() {
    return new Container(
      decoration: new BoxDecoration(
        image: new DecorationImage(
          image: new AssetImage('assets/images/huxley-lsd.png'),
          fit: BoxFit.cover,
        ),
      ),
      //I blured the parent container to blur background image, you can get rid of this part
      child: new BackdropFilter(
        filter: new ui.ImageFilter.blur(sigmaX: 3.0, sigmaY: 3.0),
        child: new Container(
          //you can change opacity with color here(I used black) for background.
          decoration: new BoxDecoration(color: Colors.black.withOpacity(0.2)),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }

  Widget rectShapeContainer() {
    return Container(
      margin: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 40.0, vertical: 10.0),
      padding: const EdgeInsets.all(15.0),
      decoration: new BoxDecoration(
        //you can get rid of below line also
        borderRadius: new BorderRadius.circular(10.0),
        //below line is for rectangular shape
        shape: BoxShape.rectangle,
        //you can change opacity with color here(I used black) for rect
        color: Colors.black.withOpacity(0.5),
        //I added some shadow, but you can remove boxShadow also.
        boxShadow: <BoxShadow>[
          new BoxShadow(
            color: Colors.black26,
            blurRadius: 5.0,
            offset: new Offset(5.0, 5.0),
          ),
        ],
      ),
      child: new Column(
        children: <Widget>[
          new Text(
            'There\'s only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving and that\'s your own self.',
            style: new TextStyle(
              color: Colors.white,
              fontSize: 20.0,
            ),
          ),
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
}

Outcome:

I hope this will help someone.

Solution 3:

To achieve the desired output we can use a blurrycontainer package

blurrycontainer make Container with Frosty Glass effect where you can control blur radius, height, blur color etc.

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:podo/widgets/blurry_container.dart';

class TestApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false,
      home: Scaffold(
        body: Container(
          height: double.infinity,
          width: double.infinity,
          decoration: BoxDecoration(
            color: Colors.white,
            image: DecorationImage(
              fit: BoxFit.cover,
              image: NetworkImage('https://ranjeetrocky.000webhostapp.com/bg5.jpg'),
            ),
          ),
          child: SafeArea(
            child: Column(
              mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceEvenly,
              children: <Widget>[
                BlurryContainer(
                  borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(20),
                  bgColor: Colors.white,
                  height: 150,
                  width: 250,
                ),
                BlurryContainer(
                  borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(20),
                  bgColor: Colors.black,
                  height: 150,
                  width: 350,
                ),
                BlurryContainer(
                  borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(20),
                  bgColor: Colors.purple,
                  blur: 2,
                  height: 120,
                  width: 150,
                ),
                BlurryContainer(
                  borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(20),
                  bgColor: Colors.lightBlueAccent,
                  height: 180,
                  width: 180,
                ),
              ],
            ),
          ),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}
