React-native-web: Use react-native-web-lists to render FlatLists

What is the current behavior?
React-native-web is not rendering FlatList while it is rendering SectionList. https://github.com/react-native-web-community/react-native-web-lists has an implementation for both

[necolas]

Is that just a copy-paste from react-native?

[entropitor]

They translate FlatList and SectionList to a ListView. As there is a listview implementation in react-native-web, we can re-use that implementation to render FlatList and SectionList

They should be using virtualization as list view is going away. I'd rather pick up from one of the PRs that tries to implement them correctly. Thanks

[entropitor]

Wouldn't it be useful to have an implementation already? And then replace it later with one using virtualization?

I agree, I'm needing this too.

Need this feature. @necolas
Also, those who are looking for options, here is one : https://github.com/Flipkart/recyclerlistview
It has taken care of virtualisation as well.
Do share your views @entropitor @necolas

Er, all the lists are available. You can use Flipkart's one too if you want.
