How do I supply an initial value to a text field?

Question

I\'d like to supply an initial value to a text field and redraw it with an empty value to clear the text. What\'s the best approach to do that with Flutter\'s APIs?

Answer 1

I've seen many ways of doing this on here. However I think this is a little more efficient or at least concise than the other answers.

TextField(
   controller: TextEditingController(text: "Initial Text here"),
)
