): Unit

A lazy vertical grid layout. It composes only visible rows of the grid.

Sample:

import androidx.compose.foundation.border
import androidx.compose.foundation.layout.height
import androidx.compose.foundation.layout.wrapContentSize
import androidx.compose.foundation.lazy.grid.GridCells
import androidx.compose.foundation.lazy.grid.LazyVerticalGrid
import androidx.compose.foundation.lazy.grid.items
import androidx.compose.foundation.lazy.grid.itemsIndexed
import androidx.compose.material3.Text
import androidx.compose.ui.Modifier
import androidx.compose.ui.graphics.Color
import androidx.compose.ui.unit.dp

val itemsList = (0..5).toList()
val itemsIndexedList = listOf("A", "B", "C")

val itemModifier = Modifier.border(1.dp, Color.Blue).height(80.dp).wrapContentSize()

LazyVerticalGrid(columns = GridCells.Fixed(3)) {
    items(itemsList) { Text("Item is $it", itemModifier) }
    item { Text("Single item", itemModifier) }
    itemsIndexed(itemsIndexedList) { index, item ->
        Text("Item at index $index is $item", itemModifier)
    }
}

Sample with custom item spans:

import androidx.compose.foundation.border
import androidx.compose.foundation.layout.Arrangement
import androidx.compose.foundation.layout.height
import androidx.compose.foundation.layout.wrapContentSize
import androidx.compose.foundation.lazy.grid.GridCells
import androidx.compose.foundation.lazy.grid.GridItemSpan
import androidx.compose.foundation.lazy.grid.LazyVerticalGrid
import androidx.compose.foundation.lazy.grid.items
import androidx.compose.material3.Text
import androidx.compose.ui.Modifier
import androidx.compose.ui.graphics.Color
import androidx.compose.ui.unit.dp

val sections = (0 until 25).toList().chunked(5)
LazyVerticalGrid(
    columns = GridCells.Fixed(3),
    horizontalArrangement = Arrangement.spacedBy(16.dp),
    verticalArrangement = Arrangement.spacedBy(16.dp),
) {
    sections.forEachIndexed { index, items ->
        item(span = { GridItemSpan(maxLineSpan) }) {
            Text(
                "This is section $index",
                Modifier.border(1.dp, Color.Gray).height(80.dp).wrapContentSize(),
            )
        }
        items(
            items,
            // not required as it is the default
            span = { GridItemSpan(1) },
        ) {
            Text("Item $it", Modifier.border(1.dp, Color.Blue).height(80.dp).wrapContentSize())
        }
    }
}

Sample with custom cache window:

import androidx.compose.foundation.lazy.grid.GridCells
import androidx.compose.foundation.lazy.grid.LazyVerticalGrid
import androidx.compose.foundation.lazy.grid.items
import androidx.compose.foundation.lazy.layout.LazyLayoutCacheWindow
import androidx.compose.material3.Text

val itemsList = (0..100).toList()

LazyVerticalGrid(
    columns = GridCells.Fixed(3),
    cacheWindow = LazyLayoutCacheWindow(aheadFraction = 0.5f, behindFraction = 0.2f),
) {
    items(itemsList) { item -> Text("Item $item") }
}
Parameters
columns: GridCells

describes the count and the size of the grid's columns, see GridCells doc for more information

modifier: Modifier = Modifier

the modifier to apply to this layout

state: LazyGridState = rememberLazyGridState()

the state object to be used to control or observe the list's state

contentPadding: PaddingValues = PaddingValues(0.dp)

specify a padding around the whole content

reverseLayout: Boolean = false

reverse the direction of scrolling and layout. When true, items will be laid out in the reverse order and LazyGridState.firstVisibleItemIndex == 0 means that grid is scrolled to the bottom. Note that reverseLayout does not change the behavior of verticalArrangement, e.g. with Arrangement.Top (top) 123### (bottom) becomes (top) 321### (bottom).

verticalArrangement: Arrangement.Vertical = if (!reverseLayout) Arrangement.Top else Arrangement.Bottom

The vertical arrangement of the layout's children

horizontalArrangement: Arrangement.Horizontal = Arrangement.Start

The horizontal arrangement of the layout's children

flingBehavior: FlingBehavior = ScrollableDefaults.flingBehavior()

logic describing fling behavior

userScrollEnabled: Boolean = true

whether the scrolling via the user gestures or accessibility actions is allowed. You can still scroll programmatically using the state even when it is disabled.

overscrollEffect: OverscrollEffect? = rememberOverscrollEffect()

the OverscrollEffect that will be used to render overscroll for this layout. Note that the OverscrollEffect.node will be applied internally as well - you do not need to use Modifier.overscroll separately.

cacheWindow: LazyLayoutCacheWindow = LazyGridDefaults.cacheWindow(state)

LazyLayoutCacheWindow configuring the area ahead and behind the viewport to prefetch and retain items. The default cache window does not cache items while the user is not scrolling. Override this to tune scrolling performance, such as increasing the ahead window to reduce frame drops during scrolling or adding a behind window to retain recently visible items when scrolling back and forth.

content: LazyGridScope.() -> Unit

the LazyGridScope which describes the content
