InputDecoration class

The border, labels, icons, and styles used to decorate a Material Design text field.

The TextField and InputDecorator classes use InputDecoration objects to describe their decoration. (In fact, this class is merely the configuration of an InputDecorator, which does all the heavy lifting.)
