As datasets grow more complex and performance demands increase, the need for a better-optimized solution becomes essential. Shopify's FlashList is a game-changer that offers significant improvements over traditional list components.
The ScrollView component is a simple but limited option for rendering lists, rendering all child components at once regardless of size, leading to performance issues.
React Native provides robust options like ScrollView, SectionList, and FlatList, but FlashList enhances both performance and the developer experience, positioning it as a new standard for mobile list displays.
The evolution of list components in React Native shows how initial solutions like ScrollView struggled with efficiency, paving the way for more sophisticated tools that can handle larger datasets.
