Cerious-Scroll: Why I Built Yet Another Virtual Scroller

Short summary

Engineer explains Cerious-Scroll, a virtual scrolling library built from years of solving real-world problems in enterprise dashboards, reports, and data-heavy applications. The key innovation: preserve viewport state instead of tracking scrollbar pixels, which naturally handles variable heights, dynamic content, lazy-loaded images, expandable rows, and data insertion without losing position or requiring special cases. The framework-agnostic core supports React, Vue, Angular, vanilla JavaScript, with working demos and source on GitHub.
