React Window is a lightweight and efficient React component for rendering large lists and tabular data. It uses virtualization techniques to only render the items that are currently visible on the screen, resulting in improved performance and reduced memory consumption. React Window is highly customizable and supports both fixed size and variable size items, making it suitable for a wide range of use cases.
Compared to traditional list rendering approaches in React, React Window offers significant performance benefits, especially when dealing with large datasets. It is actively maintained and widely used in the React community, providing a reliable solution for optimizing the rendering of long lists and tables.
