Chat App ,start page in the bottom as normal chat-CodePudding

Working in a chat app. when we navigate to the individual chat screen the screen starts from the top. On googling, the recommendation was the put reverse: true,

but it just reverses the list and again starts from the top of the list. I want to start the page from the bottom as usual chat pages do.

Attach a scroll controller to your listView.

ScrollController _scrollController = ScrollController();

add the above controller to your listview.

ListView.builder(
      controller: _scrollController,
      itemCount: 10,
      itemBuilder: (_, i) => MyItem(i),          
    ),

Then call the bottom function in your initState()

void _goToBottomPage() {
  _scrollController.jumpTo(_scrollController.position.maxScrollExtent);
}
