+Use `SizedBox` instead of `Container`, when need to add a whitespace to layout.
+
+== Why is this an issue?
+
+In Flutter https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/widgets/SizedBox-class.html[`SizedBox`] represents a widget of a specified size. It is used to control the dimensions of the child widget. https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/widgets/Container-class.html[`Container`] is another Flutter widget, that doesn't only provide width and height, but also applies additional constraints, decorations, transformations, etc. Thus `Container` is a more advanced and at the same time a much heavier widget. It is recommended to not use it, if the only need is to add a whitespace. `SizedBox` is a better option for such simple cases. You can even benefit from a const constructor of a `SizedBox`, if applicable in your case.
+
+The rule reports issue on the `Container` instance creation, if:
+
+* Both `width` and `heigh` are specified and there are no other parameters except optional `key`;
+* `child` is specified, at least one of `width` or `heigh` is specified  and there are no other parameters except optional `key`;
+
+=== What is the potential impact?
+
+A misuse of a `Container` widget may affect you performance and make the layout overly complicated.
+
+== How to fix it
+Replace `Container` with `SizedBox`
+
+=== Code examples
+
+==== Noncompliant code example
