I have a chat app I'm working on and I noticed that while sending messages, it doesnt recogise the links sent. But I want the links to be recognised and preview shown. How do I go about that please. And if there are any dependencies needed. Thank you.
I'm new to flutter so I'd like details, Thank you

You can use the flutter_link_previewer package. Here is a usage example from the documentation:
import 'package:flutter_link_previewer/flutter_link_previewer.dart';
LinkPreview(
enableAnimation: true,
onPreviewDataFetched: (data) {
setState(() {
// Save preview data to the state
});
},
previewData: _previewData, // Pass the preview data from the state
text: 'https://flyer.chat',
width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width,
)
