Is it possible to preload somehow the image on the app start? Like I have an background image in my drawer but for the first time when I open the drawer I can see the image blinks like it is fetched from assets and then displayed and it gives bad experience to me once I see it for the first time other openings of the drawer are behaving as expected because it is cached. I would like to prefetch it on the app load so there is no such effect.

We add void initState() method. In this method, we will add variable image1 and image 2 is equal to add images from your assets folders. Now that all images have been preloaded, we can use them in our build method. In the body, we will add a Center widget.
We have a simple yet useful method in Flutter which we can use to load our asset images much faster — precacheImage()! This method prefetches the image into the image cache and then whenever the image is used, it will be loaded much faster.
Use the precacheImage function to start loading an image before your drawer is built. For example, in the widget that contains your drawer:
class MyWidgetState extends State<MyWidget> { @override void initState() { // adjust the provider based on the image type precacheImage(new AssetImage('...')); super.initState(); } } If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
