## What it is
A high-performance large list component for React Native that recycles items by group to minimize CPU and memory usage. It supports cross-platform bounces, customizable refreshing/loading animations, nested lists, paging, and big media optimization.

## Use cases
- render thousands of rows in a react native list without blank cells
- replace flatlist or sectionlist for better performance with large data sources
- build a waterfall or photo feed with lazy-loaded images
- add pull-to-refresh and load-more with lottie animations
- implement nested scrolling lists with paging in react native

## When to choose
- your React Native app renders very large lists and FlatList/SectionList causes jank or memory issues
- you need item recycling, cross-platform bounces, and customizable refresh/loading animations
- you target both iOS and Android with one list implementation

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained library - the latest release is from 2022 and it may lag newer React Native versions
- your lists are small and FlatList is sufficient
- you need New Architecture / Fabric compatibility
