I'm implementing this products app where a user can add a product from his wish list and add it to their cart. Once the user clicks the add to cart button, I want to delete the product from the screen and display a "success" Snackbar.
Since the products are loaded and displayed from FireBase Firestore, I delete the item and call setState({}); so that the list on the screen will be updated. The problem is that the SnackBar that comes right after setState({}); isn't shown.
I assume it is because the widget tree is rebuilt so the current state and context are "gone".
I tried finding some information online but haven't managed to find anything useful. I also tried to make a workaround with a bool flag that will be set once the user clicks the "Add to cart" button using and on setState the flag will be true one time to show the SnackBar when the widget tree is rebuilt and then turn the flag back to off but it didn't work as well.
What am I missing? How can I display a SnackBar after calling setState({})?
here is my code: (line in question marked with FIXME:)
