Changelog
2.0.0
Version 2 is a major rewrite that offers the following benefits:
- More ergonomic props API
- Automatic memoization of row/cell renderers and props/context
- Automatically sizing for
List
and Grid
(no more need for AutoSizer
)
- Native TypeScript support (no more need for
@types/react-window
)
- Smaller bundle size
Upgrade path
See the documentation for more details, but here is an example of what the v1 to v2 upgrade might look like:
Before
import { FixedSizeList, type ListChildComponentProps } from "react-window";
function Example({ names }: { names: string[] }) {
const itemData = useMemo<ItemData>(() => ({ names }), [names]);
return (
<FixedSizeList
children={Row}
height={150}
itemCount={1000}
itemData={itemData}
itemSize={25}
width={300}
/>
);
}
function Row({
data,
index,
style
}: ListChildComponentProps<{
names: string[];
}>) {
const { names } = data;
const name = names[index];
return <div style={style}>{name}</div>;
}
After
import { List, type RowComponentProps } from "react-window";
function Example({ names }: { names: string[] }) {
return (
<List
rowComponent={RowComponent}
rowCount={names.length}
rowHeight={25}
rowProps={{ names }}
/>
);
}
function RowComponent({
index,
names,
style
}: RowComponentProps<{
names: string[];
}>) {
const name = names[index];
return <div style={style}>{name}</div>;
}
⚠️ Version 2 requirements
The following requirements are new in version 2 and may be reasons to consider not upgrading:
- Peer dependencies now require React version 18 or newer
ResizeObserver
primitive (or polyfill) is required unless explicit pixel dimensions are provided via style
prop; (see documentation for more)
1.8.11
- Dependencies updated to include React 19
1.8.10
- Fix scrollDirection when direction is RTL (#690)
1.8.9
1.8.8
- 🐛
scrollToItem
accounts for scrollbar size in the uncommon case where a List component has scrolling in the non-dominant direction (e.g. a "vertical" layout list also scrolls horizontally).
1.8.7
- ✨ Updated peer dependencies to include React v18.
1.8.6
- ✨ Updated peer dependencies to include React v17.
1.8.5
1.8.4
- 🐛 Fixed size list and grid components now accurately report
visibleStopIndex
in onItemsRendered
. (Previously this value was incorrectly reported as one index higher.) - (justingrant - #274)
- 🐛 Fixed size list and grid components
scrollToItem
"center" mode when the item being scrolled to is near the viewport edge. - (justingrant - #274)
1.8.3
1.8.2
- ✨ Deprecated grid props
overscanColumnsCount
and overscanRowsCount
props in favor of more consistently named overscanColumnCount
and overscanRowCount
. (nihgwu - #229)
- 🐛 Fixed shaky elastic scroll problems present in iOS Safari. #244
- 🐛 Fixed RTL edge case bugs and broken scroll-to-item behavior. #159
- 🐛 Fixed broken synchronized scrolling for RTL lists/grids. #198
1.8.1
- 🐛 Replaced an incorrect empty-string value for
pointer-events
with undefined
(oliviertassinari - #210)
1.8.0
- 🎉 Added new "smart" align option for grid and list scroll-to-item methods (gaearon - #209)
1.7.2
- 🐛 Add guards to avoid invalid scroll offsets when
scrollTo()
is called with a negative offset or when scrollToItem
is called with invalid indices (negative or too large).
1.7.1
- 🐛 Fix SSR regression introduced in 1.7.0 - (Betree - #185)
1.7.0
- 🎉 Grid
scrollToItem
supports optional rowIndex
and columnIndex
params (jgoz - #174)
- DEV mode checks for
WeakSet
support before using it to avoid requiring a polyfill for IE11 - (jgoz - #167)
1.6.2
- 🐛 Bugfix for RTL when scrolling back towards the beginning (right) of the list.
1.6.1
- 🐛 Bugfix to account for differences between Chrome and non-Chrome browsers with regard to RTL and "scroll" events.
1.6.0
- 🎉 RTL support added for lists and grids. Special thanks to davidgarsan for his support. - #156
- 🐛 Grid
scrollToItem
methods take scrollbar size into account when aligning items - #153
1.5.2
- 🐛 Edge case bug fix for
VariableSizeList
and VariableSizeGrid
when the number of items decreases while a scroll is in progress. - (iamsolankiamit - #138)
1.5.1
- 🐛 Updated
getDerivedState
Flow annotations to address a warning in a newer version of Flow.
1.5.0
- 🎉 Added advanced memoization helpers methods
areEqual
and shouldComponentUpdate
for item renderers. - #114
1.4.0
- 🎉 List and Grid components now "overscan" (pre-render) in both directions when scrolling is not active. When scrolling is in progress, cells are only pre-rendered in the direction being scrolled. This change has been made in an effort to reduce visible flicker when scrolling starts without adding additional overhead during scroll (which is the most performance sensitive time).
- 🎉 Grid components now support separate
overscanColumnsCount
and overscanRowsCount
props. Legacy overscanCount
prop will continue to work, but with a deprecation warning in DEV mode.
- 🐛 Replaced
setTimeout
with requestAnimationFrame
based timer, to avoid starvation issue for isScrolling
reset. - #106
- 🎉 Renamed List and Grid
innerTagName
and outerTagName
props to innerElementType
and outerElementType
to formalize support for attaching arbitrary props (e.g. test ids) to List and Grid inner and outer DOM elements. Legacy innerTagName
and outerTagName
props will continue to work, but with a deprecation warning in DEV mode.
- 🐛 List re-renders items if
direction
prop changes. - #104
1.3.1
- 🎉 Pass
itemData
value to custom itemKey
callbacks when present - #90)
1.3.0
1.2.4
- 🐛 Added Flow annotations to memoized methods to avoid a Flow warning for newer versions of Flow
1.2.3
- 🐛 Relaxed
children
validation checks. They were too strict and didn't support new React APIs like memo
.
1.2.2
- 🐛 Improved Flow types for class component item renderers - (nicholas-l - #77)
1.2.1
- 🎉 Improved Flow types to include optional
itemData
parameter. (TrySound - #66)
- 🐛
VariableSizeList
and VariableSizeGrid
no longer call size getter functions with invalid index when item count is zero.
1.2.0
- 🎉 Flow types added to NPM package. (TrySound - #40)
- 🎉 Relaxed grid
scrollTo
method to make scrollLeft
and scrollTop
params optional (so you can only update one axis if desired). - #63)
- 🐛 Fixed invalid
this
pointer in VariableSizeGrid
that broke the resetAfter*
methods - #58)
- Upgraded to babel 7 and used shared runtime helpers to reduce package size slightly. (TrySound - #48)
- Remove
overflow:hidden
from inner container (souporserious - #56)
1.1.2
- 🐛 Fixed edge case
scrollToItem
bug that caused lists/grids with very few items to have negative scroll offsets.
1.1.1
- 🐛
FixedSizeGrid
and FixedSizeList
automatically clear style cache when item size props change.
1.1.0
- 🎉 Use explicit
constructor
and super
to generate cleaner component code. (Andarist - #26)
- 🎉 Add optional
shouldForceUpdate
param reset-index methods to specify forceUpdate

annotate-pure-calls
option so that classes compiled by "transform-es2015-classes" are annotated with #__PURE__
. This enables UglifyJS to remove them if they are not referenced, improving dead code elimination in application code. (Andarist - #20)
- 🎉 Update "rollup-plugin-peer-deps-external" and use new
includeDependencies
flag so that the "memoize-one" dependency does not get inlined into the Rollup bundle. (Andarist - #19)
- 🎉 Enable Babel "loose" mode to reduce package size (-8%). (Andarist - #18)
