TanStack Virtual is a headless, framework-agnostic virtualization library for rendering very large lists, grids, and tables efficiently in JavaScript/TypeScript. It ships adapters for React, Vue, Svelte, Solid, Angular, Lit, and Marko while leaving all markup and styling to the developer.

Use cases

  • render 100k rows in a scrollable list without lag
  • virtualize a table with dynamic row heights
  • build a chat UI that follows new messages and stays stable when older history is prepended
  • virtualize horizontal columns or a grid of items
  • implement infinite scroll with window scrolling
  • keep sticky items pinned while scrolling a long feed

When to choose

  • you need to render thousands or millions of items at 60FPS
  • you want full control over markup and styles (headless)
  • you need dynamic/measured item sizing or end-anchored chat scrolling
  • you use React, Vue, Svelte, Solid, Angular, or Lit

When to avoid

  • your lists are short enough to render directly without performance issues
  • you want a ready-made styled list or table component with markup included
  • you need virtualization outside the DOM/browser (e.g., native mobile lists)
