20210407

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(
    MaterialApp(
      home: Material(
        color: Colors.blue,
        child: Center(
          child: Text(
            'Hello World',
            style: TextStyle(fontSize: 40, color: Colors.white),
          ),
        ),
      ),
    ),
  );
}

In the example here a Material() widget is defined with a colour and its own child: built using Center(). The Center() widget aligns its child: widget to the center of available screen space. In the example the child: is a Text() widget, taking a string to be displayed and specifying the text style: using the TextStyle() class.

The example here targets a Linux Desktop.
