• Individual item layout is fully customizable
• Supports both fixed size and variable sized items

I think this is a solid feature to add to the library!

I saw https://github.com/inokawa/virtua and they are good. The one thing missing is Grid.

needs hardcoded heights, have you seen that codepen above? that one works even without hardcoded heights and widths

I saw @tanstack/svelte-virtual and it looks good, I can set children with fixed height and it works well. There's a good parity with react-virtualized

doesnt support svelte 5

Trust me, I didn't just randomly open this issue. I have gone through almost every damn virtual scroller ever made in svelte, read through every single issue that talks about support for svelte 5 before figuring out we had nothing for svelte 5 with variable item heights

Apparently, virtual lists and virtual grids are very different. inokawa/virtua#124

what is the status of this feature?

Just an open discussion then? I am sure making infinite scrolling lists has to be a major use case in any component library?
