Flutter: Custom theme data

main.dart

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'theme.dart' as Theme;

void main() {
  runApp(
    new MaterialApp(
      title: 'CompanyApp',
      color: Theme.CompanyColors.blue[500],
      theme: Theme.CompanyThemeData,
      home: new Scaffold(
        appBar: new AppBar(
          title: new Text('CompanyApp')
        ),
        body: new Center(
          child: new Container(
            child: new Text('CompanyApp')
          )
        ),
      )
    )
  );
}

/**
 * Creating custom color palettes is part of creating a custom app. The idea is to create
 * your class of custom colors, in this case `CompanyColors` and then create a `ThemeData`
 * object with those colors you just defined.
 *
 * Resource:
 * A good resource would be this website: http://mcg.mbitson.com/
 * You simply need to put in the colour you wish to use, and it will generate all shades
 * for you. Your primary colour will be the `500` value.
 *
 * Colour Creation:
 * In order to create the custom colours you need to create a `Map<int, Color>` object
 * which will have all the shade values. `const Color(0xFF...)` will be how you create
 * the colours. The six character hex code is what follows. If you wanted the colour
 * #114488 or #D39090 as primary colours in your theme, then you would have
 * `const Color(0x114488)` and `const Color(0xD39090)`, respectively.
 *
 * Usage:
 * In order to use this newly created theme or even the colours in it, you would just
 * `import` this file in your project, anywhere you needed it.
 * `import 'path/to/theme.dart';`

  CompanyColors._(); // this basically makes it so you can instantiate this class
  static const Map<int, Color> blue = const <int, Color> {

I'm getting error that primarySwatch: CompanyColors.blue, needs to be in MaterialColor type.

I'm using this syntax:

 static const _blackPrimaryValue = 0xFF000000;

  static const MaterialColor black = const MaterialColor(
    _blackPrimaryValue,
    const <int, Color>{
      50:  const Color(0xFFe0e0e0),
      100: const Color(0xFFb3b3b3),
      200: const Color(0xFF808080),
      300: const Color(0xFF4d4d4d),
      400: const Color(0xFF262626),
      500: const Color(_blackPrimaryValue),
      600: const Color(0xFF000000),
      700: const Color(0xFF000000),
      800: const Color(0xFF000000),
      900: const Color(0xFF000000),
    },
  );

Also getting the same error as dawidhyzy.

I'm getting error that primarySwatch: CompanyColors.blue, needs to be in MaterialColor type.

First day of Flutter, but I believe you could pass the following in:

primarySwatch: MaterialColor(CompanyColors.blue[50].value, CompanyColors.blue),
Instead of
primarySwatch: CompanyColors.blue,

You're a freaking rock star! Thanks

Good job, thank you man. May be you know how can use custom fonts like this colors?
