Do you always use GridView instead of ListBox?

body={<>
Always choose a GridView (over a ListBox) because it can have:
</>}
/>
- Multiple columns
- Checkboxes in the header of the control, which enables users to easily check or uncheck all items
- Add sub-controls added such as buttons, links, charts, and even customized controls to the Gridview. This means you get unlimited flexibility with the GridView
❌ Figure: Bad example - No header rows and no checkbox to check or uncheck all items. None of this can be done with the ListView
✅ Figure: Good example - A header row and a checkbox to control all items, and multiple columns give users a richer experience. This can all be done using a GridView
