If you don't want to download another library (e.g. flutter_markdown), and one or more of your list items have lengthy text that spans several rows, I'd go with Raegtime's answer. However, since it assumes a string with line breaks, I want to make a version for a list with strings, which is a more common scenario. In the code below, Column makes the list items come on different rows, and Row makes the bullet points have empty space below themselves.

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

class UnorderedList extends StatelessWidget {
  UnorderedList(this.texts);
  final List<String> texts;

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    var widgetList = <Widget>[];
    for (var text in texts) {
      // Add list item
      widgetList.add(UnorderedListItem(text));
      // Add space between items
      widgetList.add(SizedBox(height: 5.0));
    }

    return Column(children: widgetList);
  }
}

class UnorderedListItem extends StatelessWidget {
  UnorderedListItem(this.text);
  final String text;

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Row(
      crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.start,
      children: <Widget>[
        Text("• "),
        Expanded(
          child: Text(text),
        ),
      ],
    );
  }
}

We can use it as such:

UnorderedList([
    "What conclusions can we draw from the implementation?",
    "Are there any changes that need to be introduced permanently?"
])

And get the result:
