AppBar Widget and Attributes

the AppBar widget is a material design widget that represents the top app bar. The app bar typically holds the application's title, leading and trailing icons for navigation, and other optional actions. It's an essential component for creating a consistent and visually appealing user interface in your Flutter app.

Here's a detailed explanation of the AppBar widget along with its commonly used properties and attributes:

The AppBar widget is part of the material.dart library and is used to create a top app bar. It is commonly placed at the top of the screen and serves as a container for various app-related information and actions.

• Example:

    AppBar(
      title: Text('My App'),
    )
  

2. leading (Widget):

• Example:

    AppBar(
      leading: IconButton(
        icon: Icon(Icons.arrow_back),
        onPressed: () {

        IconButton(
          icon: Icon(Icons.settings),
          onPressed: () {
