FlatList Optimization

To ensure smooth scrolling in FlatList:

• Use removeClippedSubviews={true}.
• Implement getItemLayout for fixed-height items.
• Memoize renderItem using React.memo or useCallback.
• Use keyExtractor with stable unique keys.

import React, { useCallback } from 'react';
import { FlatList, View, Text } from 'react-native';

const Item = React.memo(({ title }) => (
  <View style={{ height: 50 }}><Text>{title}</Text></View>
));

export const OptimizedList = ({ data }) => {
  const renderItem = useCallback(({ item }) => <Item title={item.title} />, []);
  const getItemLayout = useCallback((data, index) => (
    { length: 50, offset: 50 * index, index }
  ), []);

  return (
    <FlatList
      data={data}
      renderItem={renderItem}
      keyExtractor={item => item.id}
      getItemLayout={getItemLayout}
      removeClippedSubviews={true}
      maxToRenderPerBatch={10}
      windowSize={5}
    />
  );
};

OTA Updates

OTA updates allow you to ship bug fixes and small features instantly.

• Always verify compatibility between JS bundle and native layer before deploying.
• Ensure critical paths handle update download failures gracefully.
