   lego create

   2. select the widget type(select 3~6 for the widget type)
   3. enter the widget name

Add Assets

add any assets to the assets/lego/_new/ folder

• note: always use relative paths for imports

Add Libraries

1. add any libraries to this terminal command:

flutter pub add [library_name]

2. add #@add to the library without a version number in the pubspec.yaml file.

# example
dependencies:
