When to use ScrollableColumn vs LazyColumn ? Is it equivalent to RecyclerView vs ListView?

[Sinan Gunes]

afaik LazyColumn has similar use with RecyclerView . I don't know their difference in detail, but it seems their implementations are totally different.

However both are optimized for large lists.

personally I use scrollableColumn for laying out UI for the screen, while LazyColumn for something like fetching 100's of items from room db table and showing them

also just check .. i think using ScrollableColumn with lots of different images for a list should give out of memory error...
LazyColumn is like RecyclerView, so at a time only 5-10 items are loaded i.e the ones showing on screen

The former is going to be deprecated.

Right, replaced by a modifier that adds the scrolling behavior to any container

Interesting. First time reading about scrollableColumn.

Can someone let me know if I'm right here with my train of thought
1. I treat lazy column like a recyclerView
2. I treat a regular column for just a vertical linear layout

[Sinan Gunes]

that is my understanding as well.

ScrollableColumn : ScrollView :: LazyColumn : RecyclerView
