VirtualTree is a scrollable list of VirtualTreeEntrys. It relies on a data model VirtualTreeDataView. Its purpose is to reduce the amount of elements in DOM by only holding the entries which fit inside the area. On scrolling the entries are re-sorted, re-subscribed and micro-scrolled to give the impression of seamless scrolling. It is used to display collapsable lists of hundreds or even thousands of entries in an efficient way.

Parameters:
