flutter make container have same widget as parent code example

Example 1: flutter get parent width

var container = new Container(
  // Toggling width from 100 to 300 will change what is rendered
  // in the child container
  width: 100.0,
  // width: 300.0
  child: new LayoutBuilder(
    builder: (BuildContext context, BoxConstraints constraints) {
      if(constraints.maxWidth > 200.0) {
        return new Text('BIG');
      } else {
        return new Text('SMALL');
      }
    }
  ),
);

Example 2: flutter column min height screen sixe

import 'dart:math'; // for max function

// Add the following around your column
LayoutBuilder(
  builder: (BuildContext context, BoxConstraints constraints) {
    return SingleChildScrollView(
      child: ConstrainedBox(
        constraints: BoxConstraints.tightFor(height: max(500, constraints.maxHeight)),
        child: Column(), // your column
      ),
    );
  },
);
