I have a problem here

          DropDown<Language>(
            items: languages,
            hint: Text('Select Language'),
            onChanged: (Language? value) {
              setState(() {
                selectedLanguage = value!;
              });
            },
            value: selectedLanguage,
            // Customize how the dropdown items are displayed
            itemAsString: (Language item) => item.name,
          ),

Especially in this section value, itemAsString ?

            value: selectedLanguage,
            itemAsString: (Language item) => item.name,

I am getting this error?

The named parameter ‘value’ isn’t defined.
Try correcting the name to an existing named parameter’s name, or defining a named parameter with the name ‘value’

The named parameter ‘itemAsString’ isn’t defined.

  1. The error you’re encountering, "named parameter ‘value’ isn’t defined," is because the DropDown widget you are using doesn’t have a named parameter called value in its onChanged callback. Instead, it uses selectedValue to set the initially selected value and onChanged to define the callback when an item is selected.

    To resolve this issue, you should update your code as follows:

    Replace this line in your DropDown widget:

    onChanged: (Language? value) {
    

    With:

    onChanged: (Language? selectedLanguage) {
    

    So, your DropDown widget code should look like this:

    DropDown<Language>(
      items: languages,
      hint: Text('Select Language'),
      onChanged: (Language? selectedLanguage) {
        setState(() {
          this.selectedLanguage = selectedLanguage!;
        });
      },
      selectedValue: selectedLanguage,
      displayItem: (Language item) => item.name,
    )
    

    By making this change, you’re using the selectedLanguage variable as the selected value, which is consistent with the selectedValue property you set in the DropDown widget.

  2. The flutter_dropdown package does not have the parameter value and itemAsString. You should do one of the below:

     DropDown<Language>(
                items: languages,
                hint: Text('Select Language'),
                onChanged: (Language? value) {
                  if(value != null) setState(() {
                    selectedLanguage = value!;
                  });
                },
                selectedValue: selectedLanguage,
                // Customize how the dropdown items are displayed
                displayItem: (Language item) => item.name,
              ),
    

    or:

    DropDown<Language>(
                items: languages,
                hint: Text('Select Language'),
                onChanged: (Language? value) {
                  if(value != null) setState(() {
                    selectedLanguage = value!;
                  });
                },
                selectedValue: selectedLanguage,
                customWidgets: languages.map((language) => Text(language.name),
                isExpanded: true,
              ),
