Description

Summary 💡

Dashboard apps often handle extensive data, requiring efficient data management tools. The Autocomplete component is crucial for handling large data sets but lacks optimal performance when dealing with hundreds of records that need pagination.

Solution

Integrate virtualization into the MUI Libraries' Autocomplete component.

Benefits
  • Efficiency: Virtualization renders only visible data, ensuring smooth performance even with extensive datasets.
  • Time Savings: Users can access and review vast datasets quickly.
