RecyclerView + Glide alternatives?
You can have a look at the VirtualizedFX which is a virtual flow that is written from scratch and inspired by Flowless. The author Palexdev (I think the person is on reddit), took inspiration from Flowless, and has documented the code quite well. You can have a look and also implement a virtual grid with it such as a GridView. Honestly, I tried making my virtual flow, that is simple with a few classes as possible (with adequate success), and the inspiration came from it. The VirtualizedFX has now been incorporated in MaterialFX which is another main project by the same author.

VirtualizedFX, a new VirtualFlow library for JavaFX
Currently, I use Flowless in my main project, MaterialFX and I really like its performance, its cells' concept, but it has some serious flaws:
-
How to prevent squashed elements in GUI on first launch
There's a way to calculate the minimum required width so that the text is not truncated. Check this utility in my JavaFX library: MaterialFX, LabelUtils
-
How to make an auto complete text field?
I could add the control to my project MaterialFX, but I recently did a huge update and currently I'm taking a little pause as usual. If you can wait you gave me a good idea and I can definitely add an auto complete field in the ROADMAP list. I can't give any ETA though

RecyclerView + Glide alternatives?
Flowless - Efficient VirtualFlow for JavaFX. VirtualFlow is a layout container that lays out cells in a vertical or horizontal flow. The main feature of a virtual flow is that only the currently visible cells are rendered in the scene. You may have a list of thousands of items, but only, say, 30 cells are rendered at any given time.

BCEdit180: A bytecode editor I wrote that lets you modify, add and remove method instructions, create a class from scratch, etc
Does C# have something similar to Flowless? This would probably resolve that problem of yours.

RichTextFX: Open source libraries for making a text viewer / editor
Flowless - Those text lines (in my example) won't all fit in memory. This "lower level" library provides better clean up for unused cells than the underlying machinery that for eg ListView provides.
