Flutter listview horizontal implementation. In this post, I will be discussing and implementing Flutter listview horizontal using an easy and proper Flutter example code. Step by step explanation of what Flutter listview is, its usage in Flutter app and how to implement Flutter listview horizontal. So let’s not waste anymore of your time and start implementing Flutter listview horizontal.
What is Flutter Listview Horizontal?
Listview in Flutter is as the name suggests, it is a list of items, listview is used when you want to show a list of items like a rounded edged container or any other widget. By default it is vertical means the items are shown from top to bottom.
In this post, we will implement how to make Flutter listview horizontal means from left to right and vice versa. Let’s now implement Flutter listview horizontal using a proper Flutter example code.
Default Flutter Listview
Let’s see the default Flutter listview looks like. We have used a simple listview and have given it some Flutter containers widgets having different colors and shapes using the children constructor of the Flutter listview which takes a list of widgets. See the below code:
ListView( padding: EdgeInsets.only(top: 30), children: [ Container( height: 100, width: 100, decoration: BoxDecoration(shape: BoxShape.circle, color: Colors.green), ), Column( children: [ Container( margin: EdgeInsets.only(top: 30), height: 100, width: 100, decoration: BoxDecoration( borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(20), color: Colors.blue), ), ], ), Column( children: [ Container( margin: EdgeInsets.only(top: 30), height: 100, width: 100, decoration: BoxDecoration( borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(50), color: Colors.purple), ), ], ), Column( children: [ Container( margin: EdgeInsets.only(top: 30), height: 100, width: 100, decoration: BoxDecoration( borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(10), color: Colors.black), ), ], ) ], )
Implementing Flutter Listview Horizontal
Let’s see how to implement Flutter listview horizontal. For that we have to use the scroll direction constructor of the Flutter listview. By default it is axis vertical, we have to change it to axis horizontal. See the below code:
scrollDirection: Axis.horizontal
