Display images from the internet

Displaying images is fundamental for most mobile apps. Flutter provides the Image widget to display different types of images.

To work with images from a URL, use the Image.network() constructor.

Image.network('https://picsum.photos/250?image=9'),

One useful thing about the Image widget: It supports animated gifs.

Image.network(
  'https://docs.flutter.dev/assets/images/dash/dash-fainting.gif',
);

The default Image.network constructor doesn't handle more advanced functionality, such as fading images in after loading. To accomplish this task, check out Fade in images with a placeholder.
