react-native-fiesta VS recyclerlistview

Some of the good ones I've found: https://github.com/mateoguzmana/react-native-fiesta (Uses Skia which is great, but animations themselves are a tad basic. But it's a super new project)

If you need complex animations or you want to animate something besides native components, Skia is your choice. Skia is a base rendering engine for Flutter and Chrome written in C++. React Native version provides access to Skia API using direct JSI calls, which makes it close to native performance with minimum overhead. As a result, you can build animations like this:

Source code

Recently, I did some improvements to react-native-fiesta, in order to use one of the latest versions of @shopify/react-native-skia. The improvements are very impressive!

In the following sections, we will see how to use react-native-fiesta to add some animated balloons into your application with some few lines of code.

You could try a Recycler list view https://github.com/Flipkart/recyclerlistview . I personally haven’t used it but I’ve heard a lot of good things about it

If you need more customization you can check out https://github.com/Flipkart/recyclerlistview and merge your flatlist into one recyclerlistview with different rendering types

FlashList is based on RecyclerListView but has an API similar to FlatList, which makes migration very simple and has many additional features. For example, FlashList provides metrics API, which allows you to measure performance problems and find proper params configuration for your list component. Also, it supports animation with Reanimated and layouts like Masonry.

I read about FlashList, Big-List, RecyclerListView. I'll give it a try to check if any of them improves performance.

🚀 Using recyclerlistview for rendering messages

Try looking into https://github.com/Flipkart/recyclerlistview -- It has a bit of a learning curve but the performance improvements that you get out of box are well worth it. Try it after the other improvements people in this thread mentioned :D

https://github.com/Flipkart/recyclerlistview if you want to go even further than FlatList, but for most cases FlatList just works

Why can't you try RecyclerListView, Flipkart is using it in production.
