In Jetpack Compose, the most commonly used methods for displaying lists are:
- LazyColumn — a lazy vertical list that renders only visible items, saving resources.
LazyColumn {
items(itemsList) { item ->
Text(text = item.name)
}
}
-
LazyRow — a lazy horizontal list, similar to LazyColumn but with horizontal scrolling.
-
LazyVerticalGrid — for displaying items in a grid format (requires the accompanist library or Compose version with Grid support).
-
Column with a loop — can be used for small lists, but all elements will be rendered at once, which is inefficient for large data.
Using Lazy components is preferred for performance when working with large lists.
