Answer 1

I have managed to do this by using ListView.builder()

Here is the full code:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';


void main() {
  runApp(new MaterialApp(
      home: new MyApp()));
}

class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  State createState() {
    return new _MyAppState();
  }
}

class _MyAppState extends State {

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return new Scaffold(
        appBar: new AppBar(
          title: new Text("Scroll on the Horizon"),
          centerTitle: true,
        ),
        body: new ListView.builder(
          scrollDirection: Axis.horizontal,
          itemBuilder: (BuildContext context, int index) {
            return new Row(
              children: [
                new Text("Let ", style: new TextStyle(color: Colors.blue),),
                new Text("me ", style: new TextStyle(color: Colors.red)),
                new Text("scroll ", style: new TextStyle(color: Colors.green)),
                new Text("horizontally ",
                    style: new TextStyle(color: Colors.orange)),
                new Text("Let ", style: new TextStyle(color: Colors.blue),),
                new Text("me ", style: new TextStyle(color: Colors.red)),
                new Text("scroll ", style: new TextStyle(color: Colors.green)),
                new Text("horizontally ",
                    style: new TextStyle(color: Colors.orange)),
                new Text("Let ", style: new TextStyle(color: Colors.blue),),
                new Text("me ", style: new TextStyle(color: Colors.red)),
                new Text("scroll ", style: new TextStyle(color: Colors.green)),
                new Text("horizontally ",
                    style: new TextStyle(color: Colors.orange)),
                new Text("Let ", style: new TextStyle(color: Colors.blue),),
                new Text("me ", style: new TextStyle(color: Colors.red)),
                new Text("scroll ", style: new TextStyle(color: Colors.green)),
                new Text("horizontally ",
                    style: new TextStyle(color: Colors.orange)),

              ],

            );
          },


        ));
  }

}

Do not forget to set scrollDirection property to Axis.horizontal, since it is defaulted to the vertical value.
