How to add padding top of the ListView.builder in Flutter?

Question

Mostly I use ListView and ListView.builder in my Flutter project. And mostly I use build widget body part to place the ListView or ListView.builder. I look at Flutter documentation and didn't fine any info or example.

Here is a basic ListView Example. As you can see ListView is placed in body. I want some padding top of the body and then ListView. The padding ends and ListView starts.

If you want to add padding to the inner content that scrolls up and down with the items, you can just add padding to the ListView itself.

If you wrap the ListView in a Padding or Container , it will create a gap between the edge where the content disappears and the widget above.

...
ListView.builder(
    padding: EdgeInsets.only(top: 10),
    itemCount: cards.length,
    itemBuilder: (context, index) {
       return MyCard(
           title: cards[index].title,
       );
    },
)
...

Just wrap your ListView to Container Widget and Container widget it self has property to set padding/margin by use EdgeInsets.only(top:50) // or whatever you want
