dart convert from model to map code example

Example 1: dart object to map

class Human {
  String name;
  int age;

  Map<String, dynamic> toMap() {
    return {
      'name': name,
      'age': age,
    };
  }
}

Example 2: flutter List> example

//flutter List<Map<String, Object>> example
// this is a simple example to show how you can use a List
// with a number of widgets, ideally you should split your classes into 
// separate files in order to trim down you Widget Tree.
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
