Check out this example that I have created.

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

import 'capitalize.dart';

void main() => runApp(MyApp());

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      home: SampleApp(),
      debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false,
    );
  }
}

class SampleApp extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  _SampleAppState createState() => _SampleAppState();
}

class _SampleAppState extends State<SampleApp> {


  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
        appBar: AppBar(
          title: Text('Your heading'),
        ),
        body: Container(
            child:  Column(
                    children: <Widget>[
                     Text("someString".capitalize())
                    ],
                  )));
  }
}

This is the dart file: capitalize.dart



extension StringExtension on String {
    String capitalize() {
      return "${this[0].toUpperCase()}${this.substring(1)}";
    }
}

for the extension to work you should have sdk at minimum at 2.7.0 in pubspec.yaml

environment:
  sdk: ">=2.7.0 <3.0.0"

even if you face any problem for undefined class extension then check the below link Flutter extension-methods not working, it says "undefined class" and "requires the extension-methods language feature"

you can directly use all toUpperCase() for the string that you want. — Sagar Acharya, Oct 29 '20 at 06:23
