How can I implement virtual scrolling in Angular Material grid?

To implement virtual scrolling in an Angular Material grid, you can use the cdk-virtual-scroll-viewport component. This allows you to efficiently render large lists by only displaying the items in view.

What are the steps to set it up?

First, install Angular CDK if you haven't already. Then, import the ScrollingModule in your module. Next, use the <cdk-virtual-scroll-viewport> in your template and bind it to your data.

Can you provide a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

<cdk-virtual-scroll-viewport itemSize="50" class="example-viewport">
  <div *cdkVirtualFor="let item of items" class="example-item">{{item}}</div>
</cdk-virtual-scroll-viewport>

Make sure to adjust the itemSize to match your item height.

What if I want to customize the item size?

You can customize the item size by dynamically setting the itemSize property based on your item dimensions. Just ensure that the height is consistent for optimal performance.
