Constructor of Align class:
Syntax:

AlignmentGeometry alignment: Alignment.center,
double widthFactor, 
double heightFactor, 
Widget child})
Properties of Align Widget:
alignment:  It sets the alignment.
child:  The child widget in the tree.
hashCode: The hashcode for the object.
heightFactor: It sets its height to the child’s height multiplied by this heightFactor.
key: It is used to controlling how one widget replaces the other one.
runtimeType: It is a representation of runtime type.
widthFactor: It sets its width to the child’s width multiplied by this widthFactor.
Example 1: Aligning the text at the center of the container.
The main.dart file:
Dart
import 'package:flutter/material.dart'; void main() => runApp(MyApp()); class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {  @override  Widget build(BuildContext context) {    return MaterialApp(      title: 'TextSpan',      theme: ThemeData(        primarySwatch: Colors.green,      ),      home: MyHomePage(),      debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false,    );  }} class MyHomePage extends StatefulWidget {  @override  _MyHomePageState createState() => _MyHomePageState();} class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {  @override  Widget build(BuildContext context) {    return Scaffold(        appBar: AppBar(            title: Text('GeeksforGeeks Align Widget'),            backgroundColor: Colors.green),        body: Center(            child: Container(          height: 120.0,          width: 120.0,          color: Colors.blue[50],          child: Align(            alignment: Alignment.center,            child: Text(              "Geeky Text",              style: TextStyle(fontSize: 20, fontWeight: FontWeight.bold),            ),          ),        )));  }}
