## 📦 Installation

```bash
# FRONTEND (ALWAYS REQUIRED)
npm install lazy-render-virtual-scroll

# BACKEND (OPTIONAL - Only if you have 1000-4000+ dynamic items)
npm install lazy-render-server    # Node.js backend
pip install lazy-render-py        # Python backend
```

> [!IMPORTANT]
> **When to install backend?**
> - ✅ **4000+ dynamic items** → Install backend (REQUIRED)
> - ✅ **1000-4000 dynamic items** → Install backend (OPTIONAL, recommended)
> - ✅ **Node.js backend** → `npm install lazy-render-server`
> - ✅ **Python backend** → `pip install lazy-render-py`
> - ❌ **< 1000 items OR static data** → Frontend only is enough!
