AnimatedHighlightedText class

A widget that animates a hand-drawn, sketchy highlight effect behind the text.

Supports two animation modes:

  • Organic Mode: Random wavy lines for a natural, hand-drawn effect.
  • Plain Mode: Smooth, straight highlighting for a more structured look.

Example Usage:

AnimatedHighlightedText(
  text: "Flutter is amazing!",
  highlightColor: Colors.yellow.withOpacity(0.4),
  textStyle: TextStyle(fontSize: 24, color: Colors.black),
  animationMode: SketchyAnimationMode.organic, // or SketchyAnimationMode.plain
  duration: Duration(seconds: 2),
  startDelay: Duration(milliseconds: 500),
)
