SlickScroll

Warning: very early pre-release alpha hazard zone code

Virtual list that can scroll trillions of items. Potentially up to MAX_SAFE_INTEGER - 1. Features:

• Lots of freakin' items
• Multiple items per row
• Dynamic items per row via rAF

Inspired by SlickGrid's Implementation

How it works

Read the JSFiddle that inspired this. This is basically a port to React of that code.

Installation

No npm module yet. You'll need to copy and paste.

Docs

Read the code (and then issue a PR =).

Usage

So far, I've only tested this within flexbox.

function renderRow(rows) => {
    const rowElements = rows.map(row => {
        const itemElements = row.map(item => <div>Item number {item}</div>)
        return <div className='row-wrapper'>{itemElements}</div>;
    });

    return <div>{rowItems}</div>
}

<div style={{ flex: 1, display: 'flex', }}>
    <SlickScroll
      itemCount={100000000}
      renderRow={this.renderRow}
      rowHeight={100}
      itemWidth={260} />
</div>

Is it Web Scale?

This is mega-super-alpha. Please file issues or PRs if you would like!

Known issues

On Safari, scrolling will loose inertia due to virtual items disappearing

• FIX/TODO: Looks like there's a fix, thanks to @jounik: mleibman/SlickGrid#22 (comment)

TODO

• Packaging and publishing to npm
• Migrate tests to jsdom and run tests on travis
• probably a ton of other stuff
