Alternating background colors on ListView.builder

I have a ListView.builder generating ListTiles from a List. I would like to achieve an alternating color like you would a typical list.

Is there a Flutter official way to do this? Or I'm stuck with doing something like 

ListView.builder(
...
  itemBuilder: (...) {
    return ListTile
      ..
      title: Container(
        decoration: BoxDecoration(color: Colors.grey),
          child: Column(children: <Widget>[
            Text("What should've been the title property"),
            Text("and its trailing"),
          ],),
      ),

or something to that effect?

Solution

  • Got it.

    Instead of using ListTile I can use a Card to have the color property accessible. Then with @pskink's suggestion, I can use the index to determine whether it's odd or even.
