Add a store interface to the core `Virtualizer`: `subscribe(listener)`
registers any number of change listeners, and `getState()` returns an
immutable `{ virtualItems, totalSize, range, isScrolling, scrollDirection }`
snapshot that keeps its identity until a field changes.
`useVirtualizerState(virtualizer, selector?, isEqual?)` subscribes to it
through `useSyncExternalStore` (via the `use-sync-external-store` shim, as
the peer range reaches back to React 16.8). The `Virtualizer` instance
stays the handle for imperative calls.
React Compiler skips components that call `useVirtualizer` (it is on the
compiler's known-incompatible list) but compiles components the
virtualizer is passed to, where `virtualizer.getVirtualItems()` is
memoised on the stable instance and goes stale. The react-compiler e2e
page now covers that case, with an `?api=instance` control that stays
stale and `?api=state` that follows scrolling. Adds a React Compiler
example using the hook with `directDomUpdates`.

Listeners were only called from `notify`, but the snapshot can change without one: - a scroll event that flips `scrollDirection` within the same range and `isScrolling` state, which `maybeNotify` skips; - options set during render (e.g. a new `count`), which never notify — a memoised child using `useVirtualizerState` received no re-render and kept the previous state. Listeners now run through `publishState`, which compares `getState()` against the last published snapshot and only calls them when it moved. It runs from `notify`, after each scroll event, and at the end of `_willUpdate`, once render-time options are committed. `onChange` fires exactly as before.

`subscribe(listener)` now takes a plain `() => void`, the usual store subscription shape. The flag only carried a value on the `notify` path and was always `false` from the scroll-event and `_willUpdate` publishes, and since listeners skip unchanged snapshots it was never a reliable "flush now" signal. `useSyncExternalStore` ignores it, and synchronous flushing stays with `onChange`. Not released yet, so dropping it is free; it can be added back without a breaking change if a need appears. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
`getState()` now reuses its `range` copy while the indexes are unchanged, so `range` stays referentially stable across snapshots that only differ in `totalSize` or `virtualItems`. A `state => state.range` selector no longer re-renders on every resize. That makes the `directDomUpdates` gate a plain comparison against the last rendered `range` / `isScrolling` from the snapshot, replacing the adapter's own copied `prevRange` bookkeeping. One difference: while the range is `null` (no items or a zero-size viewport) the gate now renders once instead of on every notify. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Reading `getState()` marks the current range as seen for `maybeNotify` (via `getVirtualIndexes`). In render that is intended, but `publishState` also reads it outside render, at the end of `_willUpdate`. When nothing read the new range during render — a parent that changes `count` without reading items, and a memoised child using `useVirtualizerState` — that read swallowed the range change: subscribers updated, but `onChange` never fired. With `directDomUpdates` the child then mounted its new rows after the parent's `applyDirectStyles` effect had run, leaving them unpositioned. Split the two roles so nothing re-enters: - `emitState()` calls listeners when the snapshot moved; `notify` uses it. - `publishState()`, for the call sites outside `notify` (scroll handler, `_willUpdate`), runs `maybeNotify()` first so a range change goes through `notify` and `onChange`, then `emitState()`, which is a no-op when that already emitted. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
With `directDomUpdates`, new rows were positioned only by the owning component's layout effect or by the next `onChange`. A memoised child rendering the rows through `useVirtualizerState` commits on its own when the owner, or anything in its render pass, has already read the new range: `_willUpdate` then publishes to the child without an `onChange`, the owner does not render again, and the child's rows mount after its layout effect has run. With fixed-size rows, where measuring reports no delta, they stayed at 0 until the range changed. Position rows as they register instead. The `measureElement` wrapper positions the registering row directly, through `indexFromElement` and the measurements cache, so a commit that mounts many rows stays linear. `containerRef` positions the rows that mount together with the container — React attaches children's refs before their parent's, so those rows register before there is a container to position them in — through `applyDirectStyles`, which is idempotent, so rows the layout effect already covers are unaffected. Also pins `onChange` in the `_willUpdate` publish tests: it fires once, before the listener, for a range change, and not at all when only the total size changes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Without a selector, `useVirtualizerState` re-renders on every field of the snapshot, which includes `scrollDirection` flips within the same range that `onChange` never reported. Say so, and point rows-only components at a `virtualItems` selector. `getState()` shares `getVirtualItems()`'s side effect: the range it computes counts as seen for `maybeNotify`, so a change first read from other code does not fire `onChange`. Note where to read it from. Also correct the `subscribe` entry: a committed `count` change that moves the visible range does fire `onChange`; only one that changes the total size alone bypasses it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…date With a `useVirtualizerState` subscriber attached, `_willUpdate` publishes an option change that moved the range. When that happens mid-scroll the notify is sync, and the adapter called `flushSync` from inside a layout effect, where React skips the flush and warns in development. Widen the `measureElement` guard into a commit-window flag that also covers `_willUpdate`, so those notifies use a plain re-render at the same sync priority. The changeset now also notes that, with a subscriber attached, an option change that moves the range fires `onChange` when it is committed rather than at the next scroll event.

One hook covers bothuseVirtualizeranduseWindowVirtualizer, so there is no per-virtualizer-type snapshot API. It is additive in v3 and can become the recommended model in v4.🎯 Changes
subscribe(listener)registers any number of change listeners (fired at the same moments asonChange), andgetState()returns an immutableVirtualizerState—{ virtualItems, totalSize, range, isScrolling, scrollDirection }— that keeps its identity until a field changes.
