What is Scaffold?
Scaffold, in simple terms, is a structure that provides a foundation for building a user interface. It typically includes common screen elements like an app bar (top bar), a body (the main content area), and optionally, a bottom navigation bar or a drawer. Think of it as a pre-designed template that takes care of basic screen organization, letting you focus on the specific content and functionality of your app.
