Description

Here is the wishlist I'd like to have for the next major version:

  • Don't use Grid for table header
  • Replace react-virtualized with react-window #12
  • remove deprecated lifecycles #10
  • Dynamic row heights #170
  • Make virtualization configurable
  • A11y
  • UT
  • plugin support
  • rewrite with TypeScript
  • support custom children key

Breaking changes:

  • use rollup to bundle package
  • omit placeholders in rowRenderer
  • rename tagName to as or elementType
  • rename scrollToPosition to scrollTo
  • rename headerRenderer to headerRowRenderer
  • rename headerRenderer for Column to headerCellRenderer
  • move AutoResizer to a separate package

Nice to have:

  • better size calculation to support cell with borders #149

Contributor guide

Research direction
Focus on one uncompleted item such as 'Make virtualization configurable'. Study the existing codebase to understand how virtualization is implemented (using react window) and then propose a design to allow users to enable/disable virtualization. Consider the impact on dynamic row heights and custom children keys. Provide a written proposal or a proof of concept.
