Overall this looks nicely architected. However I don't see any data-intensive controls. Adobe being a graphics company may not need such controls, and this will probably be the weak point of this lib. If you want to see what data intensive controls take a look at Azure Portal. Hope to see such controls in a future version of this lib.

Adobe actually has a pretty big marketing business as well, along with applications like file managers (think web based versions of Finder or Windows Explorer). Tables are one of our most complex components, and are quite commonly used in some of our products. Our table implementation is a work in progress right now. It supports keyboard navigation, sections, sticky columns, multiple selection, infinite loading, drag and drop, etc. Should be available in a month or so. We'll also support other collections like trees/grids/column views in the future, and possibly some charting stuff as well. Lots still left to build! :)

That's good to hear! Here's another very important control: ComboBox. Data-intensive applications need powerful and flexible ComboBox with options such as dynamically supplying suggestions, ability to select multiple items (i.e., multi-select Combo which has checkboxes next to each option displayed in the dropdown), ability to search for an option in the dropdown (so the dropdown has a searchbox at the top) and so on.

Yep! ComboBox is also in progress/close. ;) https://github.com/adobe/react-spectrum/pull/421
