There's almost no difference. ListView is a SliverList. Same with GridView, which is a SliverGrid. They are doing exactly the same thing. The only difference between them is that SliverList is a sliver, not a widget. Which means it's used inside a ScrollView, usually CustomScrollView. ListView is nothing else but a biding of SliverList to transform it into a Widget to make it usable alongside other widgets such as Row/Container. |
