Answer 1

Here is working code:

If you want a infinite list, set itemCount to null :)

Answer 2

Add a variable that you can reference for the index from the color list.

int i = 0;

Then, on your ListView.builder builder function, check if you reached the end of the list.

ListView.builder(
   itemCount: 8,
   itemBuilder: (BuildContext context,int index){

   if (i > colors.length) i = 0;

   final color = colors[i];
   i++;
   return ListTile(
     tileColor: color, 
     title:Text("List item $index")
   );
   
   }
 )

I do not know if this is efficient but you get the idea.
