type 'Home Page' is not a subtype of type 'bool'

Question

my app getting a type 'Home Page' is not a subtype of type 'bool' error.

My HomePage code

import 'package:flutter/cupertino.dart';

class HomePage extends StatefulWidget {
  const HomePage({super.key});

  @override
  _HomePageState createState() => _HomePageState();
}

class _HomePageState extends State<HomePage> {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Container();
  }
}

My Main code

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:medreminder/home_page.dart';
import 'package:medreminder/profile_page.dart';
import 'package:medreminder/settings_page.dart';

void main() => runApp(MainPage());

class MainPage extends StatefulWidget {
  const MainPage({super.key});

  @override
  State<MainPage> createState() => _MainPageState();
}

class _MainPageState extends State<MainPage> {
  List pages = [
    HomePage(),
    SettingPage(),
    ProfilePage()
  ];
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Container(
        width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width,
        height: MediaQuery.of(context).size.height * 0.4, 
      ),
      extendBody: pages[0],
      bottomNavigationBar: BottomNavigationBar(
        selectedItemColor: Colors.black,
        items: [
          BottomNavigationBarItem(label: "Home", icon: Icon(Icons.home)),
          BottomNavigationBarItem(label: "Settings", icon: Icon(Icons.settings)),
          BottomNavigationBarItem(label: "Profile", icon: Icon(Icons.account_circle)),
          
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
}

You need to pass a bool on extendBody

it can be extendBody: true,

Also you need to provide MaterialApp on top, it can be

void main() => runApp(MaterialApp(home: MainPage()));

class MainPage extends StatefulWidget {
  const MainPage({super.key});

  @override
  State<MainPage> createState() => _MainPageState();
}

class _MainPageState extends State<MainPage> {
  List<Widget> pages = [HomePage(), Text("s"), Text("ProfilePage")];
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Container(
        width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width,
        height: MediaQuery.of(context).size.height * 0.4,
        child: pages[0],
      ),
      extendBody: true,
      bottomNavigationBar: BottomNavigationBar(
        selectedItemColor: Colors.black,
        items: [
          BottomNavigationBarItem(label: "Home", icon: Icon(Icons.home)),
          BottomNavigationBarItem(
              label: "Settings", icon: Icon(Icons.settings)),
          BottomNavigationBarItem(
              label: "Profile", icon: Icon(Icons.account_circle)),
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
}

may i know what "Text("s"), Text("ProfilePage")" are for? cause i put SettingPage(), ProfilePage() in my previous code — NyK, Nov 18 '22 at 08:03
