Flutter horizontal Listview/Pageview with selected element animated to full width

Question

so basically I just want to have a horizontal snapping ListView or PageView with items inside, where the currently selected Item will take the whole available full width. This is my base code so far:

    import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() => runApp(MyApp());

class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  _MyAppState createState() => _MyAppState();
}

// Initialize DATA MODEL list with some random values.
List<DataModel> dataList = ['Andrew', 'Test', 'Data', 'Random']
    .map<DataModel>((s) => DataModel(s))
    .toList();

double containerWidth;

class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    //var fWidth = MediaQuery.of(context).size.height * 1;

    return MaterialApp(
        title: 'Adjustable height card.',
        home: Scaffold(
          body: ListView.builder(
            controller: PageController(viewportFraction: 0.8),
            scrollDirection: Axis.horizontal,
            itemCount: dataList.length,
            itemBuilder: (context, index) {
              DataModel item = dataList.elementAt(index);

              // Check if the item is expanded or not and set size accordingly
              containerWidth = item.expanded
                  ? MediaQuery.of(context).size.width * 1
                  : MediaQuery.of(context).size.width * 0.30;

              return GestureDetector(
                onDoubleTap: () {
                  setState(() {
                    item.expanded = !item.expanded;
                  });
                },
                child: AnimatedContainer(
                  curve: Curves.easeOut,
                  duration: Duration(milliseconds: 400),
                  color: Colors.red,
                  width: containerWidth,
                  margin: EdgeInsets.all(8),
                  child: Center(
                    child: Text(
                      dataList.elementAt(index).title,
                      style: TextStyle(
                        color: Colors.white,
                      ),
                    ),
                  ),
                ),
              );
            },
          ),
        ));
  }
}

class DataModel {
  String title;
  bool expanded;

  DataModel(this.title) {
    expanded = false;
  }
}

As you can see for now I can give the selected element full width, but I need to have some kind of page snapping, because at the moment im not able to skip the big or small containers in a good way. Now If I change the whole thing to a PageView, I dont have control anymore about the width of AnimatedContainer. Please help.

double containerWidth;

  List<Widget> getViewList()
  {
    var listOfWidgets = List<Widget>();


    for (var item in dataList) {
      containerWidth = item.expanded
          ? MediaQuery.of(context).size.width* 1
          :  MediaQuery.of(context).size.width * 0.30;
      listOfWidgets.add(GestureDetector(
        onDoubleTap: () {
          print("onDoubleTap");
          setState(() {

              item.expanded=false;
            item.expanded = !item.expanded;
          });
        },
        child: AnimatedContainer(
          curve: Curves.easeOut,
          duration: Duration(milliseconds: 100),
          color: Colors.red,
          width: containerWidth,
          margin: EdgeInsets.all(8),
          child: Center(
            child: Text(
              item.title,
              style: TextStyle(
                color: Colors.white,
              ),
            ),
          ),
        ),
      )); // TODO: Whatever layout you need for each widget.
    }

    return listOfWidgets;
  }
}


class DataModel {
  String title;
  bool expanded;

  DataModel(this.title) {
    expanded = false;
  }
}
