Guys, this has already been discussed a number of times :-) I'm fully aware of the benefits of virtualization, and I'm more than open to review/accept a PR implementing virtualization in a way that plays nicely with all the other features...
@icflorescu
I can work on it.
My question is, there are many ways to solve this:
I suggest windowing, because intersection Observer is new and maybe will be needed pollyfill.
We can use react-window or react-virtualized
what you think ?
PS: What you think to having Discord channel for this project?
@icflorescu ?
Hey @AlexcastroDev, sorry for being unable to reply sooner, but I'm currently pretty caught-up in a deadline.
I don't have experience with any of them, but at the first glance react-window
seems the obvious logical choice.
So, yes, if you're up to it and have the time, feel free to have a go at it, I'd be happy to support in any way I can (though, as stated above, I'm currently under a bit of pressure) and your PRs are more than welcomed.
I have built a few other open-source projects besides mantine-datatable
over the last years and learned that - while lots of users would come up with feature requests or how-to questions - very few are willing and/or able to contribute their own effort :-)
About setting up a discord channel for the project, yes, I did thought about it a while ago, but again, couldn't find the time to do it...
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I've been using this library for my project and found that there is no virtualisation available. We used a basic
<div>
like structure to render a list of items with react-window for performance purposes. Using mantine-datable is a delight, but then I could not find a way in which I can virtualise the list for handling large amounts of rows and columns. Our table has continuous pagination (infinite scrolling type) so virtualisation makes for a very strong use case.Describe the solution you'd like
I explored other libraries like TanStack Table and it seems to have virtualisation enabled. If there could be a way to virtualise the rows it would do the job of handling extensive data without making the DOM heavy.
