How to include images in your app

1. Create an assets/images folder
➤This should be located in the root of your project, in the same folder as your pubspec.yaml file.

➤ In Android Studio you can right click in the Project view
You don't have to call it assets or images. You don't even need to make images a subfolder. Whatever name you use, though, is what you will regester in the pubspec.yaml file.

2. Add your image to the new folder

You can just copy your image into assets/images. The relative path of lake.jpg, for example, would be assets/images/lake.jpg.

3. Register the assets folder in `pubspec.yaml`

Open the pubspec.yaml file that is in the root of your project.

Add an assets subsection to the flutter section like this:

  flutter:
    assets:
      - assets/images/lake.jpg

If you have multiple images that you want to include then you can leave off the file name and just use the directory name (include the final /):
```
  flutter:
    assets:
      - assets/images/
```

4. Use the image in code

Get the asset in an Image widget with Image.asset('assets/images/lake.jpg').

The entire main.dart file is here:

 import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

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

  class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
    @override
    Widget build(BuildContext context) {
      return MaterialApp(
        home: Scaffold(
          appBar: AppBar(
            title: Text("Image from assets"),
          ),
          body: Image.asset('assets/images/lake.jpg'), //   <--- image
        ),
      );
    }
  }

5. Restart your app

When making changes to pubspec.yaml I find that I often need to completely stop my app and restart it again, especially when adding assets. Otherwise I get a crash.

Running the app now you should have something like this:
