Pulse · Story Reply
Pulse · Story Reply is a production-ready Social Flutter screen from FlutterKit Pro, installable with flutterkit add social-story-reply.
Story Reply is the modal overlay Pulse shows when a viewer wants to answer someone's story privately. It renders over a translucent black scrim (55% opacity) so the current story stays visible but dimmed. Top-to-bottom: a full-bleed dimmed story fills the background via the _StoryBackdropPainter CustomPainter — a cool dusk gradient with a painted moon and layered hills — wrapped in a GestureDetector that fires onClose when tapped to dismiss. A SafeArea header row pairs a small 40x54 rounded story thumbnail (the same _StoryBackdropPainter) with a 'Replying to Maya Lin' title and an 'Only Maya can see your reply' privacy subline, plus a close IconButton. A Spacer pushes the interaction cluster to the bottom: a horizontally scrollable 62px reaction rail of six 52px circular chips (love, haha, wow, fire, clap, sad), each a colored Material icon that calls onReaction with its string id. Beneath it a pinned input bar sits on the _surface color with a top hairline — a rounded 'Send a reply…' pill and a gradient-filled circular send button (accent-to-brand indigo) wired to onSend. Palette is Pulse's dark near-mono with the #6E56F7 indigo brand and #9B8CFF accent; typography is the bundled Inter font. Fully self-contained pure Flutter with its own dark theme, SafeArea insets top and bottom, no network images, overflow-proof, and backend-agnostic through the injected onClose, onReaction and onSend callbacks.
