## What it is
Masonic is a high-performance virtualized masonry grid component for React, inspired by react-virtualized and react-window. It exports its underlying hooks and utilities so advanced custom masonry implementations are possible with minimal code.

## Use cases
- render a pinterest-style masonry grid in react
- display tens of thousands of images without lag
- virtualized infinite scrolling masonry list
- build a responsive masonry layout with react hooks
- lazy render grid cells based on scroll position
- create a photo gallery grid with variable height items

## When to choose
- you need a masonry layout that stays fast with very large lists
- you want virtualization plus access to low-level hooks for custom behavior
- your project is TypeScript and you want type-safe components

## When to avoid
- you need a simple uniform grid where CSS grid suffices
- you are not using React
- you need SSR-first rendering without window measurement

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: ui-components, frontend-framework
- domain: web-development, frontend
- platform: browser
- tags: react, masonry-layout, virtualization, infinite-scroll, react-hooks, typescript, web-server, nodejs
