Easily place Ads in your Flutter app
This article will review the new functions and features now available with the latest version of the library package, Ads. It’s for developers who want Ads in their app. We’ll quickly review its new named parameters and error handling.

Screenshots Only. Click For Gists.
As always, I prefer using screenshots over gists to show code in my articles. I find them easier to work with, and easier to read.

Learn By Example
A gist example accompanies this article to highlight the new features showcased here. Below is a screenshot of that example code. More specifically, it’s a screenshot of the initState() function where the Ads class is instantiated and, in this case, where all three types of Ads are then defined. Also, it’s here where a number of ‘event listeners’ are defined, and where the Banner Ad is displayed. Of course, you’re free to instantiate the Ads object elsewhere in your app. It just happens, in this example code, it’s defined in a State object’s initState() function.
