>> React and it would be difficult to render that many rows of anything in a useful way

That’s not true it’s dead simple to display 1,000 rows can you explain what the hard bit is?




It's easy with static content, but React tends to run into performance issues with long lists like that. Generally the way of fixing it is virtualize the list. Basically check the window scroll position and only render rows that you need to, instead of the offscreen rows. Twitter does this well, but I'm not sure you'd be able to Ctrl+F for text that isn't rendered.
