React InfiniteScroll in a scrollable component on the Page

Infinite Scrolling is nothing but a listing page design approach that loads content continuously as the user scrolls up and down and it eliminates the need for pagination breaking content up into multiple pages.

One of the simplest ways to use a library like react-infinite-scroll-component and this library provides a component that will trigger an event when the user scrolls to the bottom of the page. We can then use this event to load more content or information. Using built-in functions that React provides is also another way to implement this operation. Infinite scroll engages the users by boosting their performance and keeping viewers on the page for as long as possible. Users don't want to wait for pages to load because infinite scrolling can provide a better experience for the users. For example, the first page is only loaded at the time we entered the first time but the next page is loaded as soon as the user scrolls down through content or information.

React also has some built-in methods that we can use to implement an infinite scroll. In those built-in methods, componentDidUpdate is the first method. Then Rect calls this method after its updated a component. We can use this method to check if the user has scrolled to the bottom of the content or page and if so, load more data.

Here is an example of how you can implement Infinite Scrolling in a scrollable component on the page:

Code

In this solution we're using React and Infinitescroll libraries.

Instructions

Follow the steps carefully to get the output easily.

1. Install the Node.js and React on your IDE(preferable Visual Studio Code).
2. Create React Application using npx create-react-app foldername.
3. cd foldername.
4. Install npm install infinite-scroll.
5. Open the folder in IDE.
6. Copy the code using "copy" button above and paste it in app.js file(remove the earlier code from app.js).
7. Import libraries.
8. Open the terminal from IDE.
9. npm start to run the file.

I hope you found this useful. I have added the link to dependent libraries, version information in the following sections.

I found this code snippet by searching for ''implementing infinitescroll in react' in kandi. You can try any such use case!

Environment Tested

I tested this solution in the following versions. Be mindful of changes when working with other versions.

1. The solution is created in Visual Studio Code 1.73.1.
2. The solution is tested on node v18.12.1 and npm v8.19.2.
3. React version-18.2.0.
4. InfiniteScroll version-current.

Using this solution, we are able to create infinitescroll in a scrollable component on a page in react with simple steps. This process also facilities an easy way to use, hassle-free method to create a hands-on working version of code which would help us to create infinitescroll in a scrollable component on a page in react.
