class TopicsScreen extends StatelessWidget {

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return FutureBuilder<List<Topic>>(
      future: FirestoreService().getTopics(),
      builder: (context, snapshot) {
        if (snapshot.connectionState == ConnectionState.waiting) {
          return const LoadingScreen();
        } else if (snapshot.hasError) {
          return Center(
            child: ErrorMessage(message: snapshot.error.toString()),
          );
        } else if (snapshot.hasData) {
          var topics = snapshot.data!;

          return Scaffold(
