How to insert an item at position 0 in a Hive DB box?

Question

I'm using Hive for Flutter. I want to insert every item at position 0 of a box. The items inside the box have to increase index automatically. If I use the 'add' method, the new item inserted takes the last position. This is not good for a List View. The last item inserted must be the first of the list in order to make it visible to the user.

Answer 1

Keys are automatically sorted, no insertion order is preserved:

Boxes are sorted by lexicographically by key. Keys can either be strings or integers.
