Flutter AutoResizeTextView, setting high fontSize overflows
In Android, we can use AutoResizeTextView and give it any text size of our choice, it will not flow out of its constraints, I was looking for similar solution in Flutter.
I tried following,
Container(
color: Colors.blue,
constraints: BoxConstraints(maxHeight: 200.0, minWidth: 600.0),
child: Text("8", style: TextStyle(fontSize: 400.0)),
);
Here is the ugly output. So, how can I force the Text to always stay inside the Container no matter how much fontSize is given to it

Thanks to pskink,
I need to wrap the Text inside FittedBox which is further wrapped inside a Container. Here is the solution.
Container(
color: Colors.blue,
constraints: BoxConstraints(maxHeight: 200.0, minWidth: 600.0),
child: FittedBox(child: Text("8", style: TextStyle(fontSize: 400.0))),
);
@pskink, you can write it down as answer too, I will accept yours not mine.
