What are GlobalKeys and when to use them?

 GlobalKey uniquely identifies widgets across the widget tree — useful to:

  • Access widget state from anywhere

  • Validate a form

  • Scroll to a widget

Example:

final formKey = GlobalKey<FormState>();
Form(
  key: formKey,
  child: TextFormField(),
);
