ValueListenableBuilder<T> class

A widget whose content stays sync'ed with a ValueListenable.

Given a ValueListenable<T> and a builder which builds widgets from concrete values of T, this class will automatically register itself as a listener of the ValueListenable and call the builder with updated values when the value changes.

Performance optimizations

If your builder function contains a subtree that does not depend on the value of the ValueListenable, it's more efficient to build that subtree once instead of rebuilding it on every animation tick.

If you pass the pre-built subtree as the child parameter, the ValueListenableBuilder will pass it back to your builder function so that you can incorporate it into your build.

Using this pre-built child is entirely optional, but can improve performance significantly in some cases and is therefore a good practice.
