Flutter Userinput will only get displayed after a hotreload, but not in the application itself-CodePudding

Hi im new to Flutter and coding and tried do build my first to do app. I've created a textformfield to add new todos with a button in a container above. I used the texteditingcontroller to get the userinput and stored the input in a variable. I tried to display the userInput on a toDoSection, but it only appears, if im hot reloading the application. My button, which should do the work instead, doesn't work. What did I do wrong here?

landing_page.dart

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_application_1/presentation/widgets/to_do_section.dart';

 final _textController = TextEditingController();
    String userInput = "";
class LandingPage extends StatefulWidget {
  const LandingPage({Key? key}) : super(key: key);

  @override
  State<LandingPage> createState() => _LandingPageState();
}

class _LandingPageState extends State<LandingPage> {
  
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      
      appBar: AppBar(
        title: const Center(child: Text("To-Do-App")),
        backgroundColor: Colors.redAccent,
      ),
      body: SingleChildScrollView(
        child: Column(
          children: [
            const ToDos(),
            ToDoAdd()
            ],
        ),
      ),
    );
  }

 

  Column ToDoAdd() {
    return Column(
          children:  [
            Padding(
              padding: EdgeInsets.only(top: 8.0, left: 20, right: 20, bottom: 20),
              child: TextField(
                controller: _textController,
                textAlign: TextAlign.center,
                decoration: InputDecoration(
                  border: OutlineInputBorder(),
                  hintText: "Add a new ToDo",
                )  ,
              ),
              
            ),
            MaterialButton(
              color: Colors.redAccent,
                onPressed: () {
                  setState(() {
                  userInput = _textController.text; 
                  toDoList.add(userInput);
                  
                });
                  
                },
                child: Text("Admit", style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white),),
                ),
                Text(userInput)
          ],
        );
  }

CodePudding user response：

The following code should do the trick. The problem was not using

And the code:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(const MyApp());
}
