class SignIn extends StatefulWidget {

  @override
  _SignInState createState() => _SignInState();
}

class _SignInState extends State {

        // Initially password is obscure
  bool _obscureText = true;
    // Toggles the password show status
  void _togglePasswordStatus() {
    setState(() {
      _obscureText = !_obscureText;
    });
  }
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return 
    Scaffold(
      backgroundColor: Colors.brown[100],
      appBar: AppBar(
        backgroundColor: Colors.brown[400],
        elevation: 0.0,
        title: Text('Sign In'),
      ),
      body: Container(
        padding: EdgeInsets.symmetric(vertical:20.0,horizontal:50.0),
        child: Form(
          key: _formKey,
          child: Column(children: [
            TextFormField(
              decoration: InputDecoration(
                hintText: 'Password',
                suffixIcon:  IconButton(
                  icon:Icon(_obscureText ? Icons.visibility:Icons.visibility_off,),
                   onPressed: _togglePasswordStatus,
                   color: Colors.pink[400],
                   ),
              ),
              validator: (val){
                return
                val.length < 6 ? 'Enter A Password Longer Than 6 Charchters' :null;
              },
              obscureText: _obscureText,
              onChanged: (val){
                setState(() {
                  password = val.trim();
                });
              },
            ),
