Yes.
**Does `IGListKit` work with `UITableView`?**
#### Does `IGListKit` work with `UITableView`?
No, but you can install the [diffing subspec via CocoaPods](https://instagram.github.io/IGListKit/installation.html).
**What's the purpose of `IGListCollectionView`?**
#### What's the purpose of `IGListCollectionView`?
We use this subclass to gain compile-time safety to prevent disallowed methods from being called on `UICollectionView`, because `IGListKit` handles model and view updates. See discussion at [#409](https://github.com/Instagram/IGListKit/issues/409).
**How can I manage cell selection and deselection?**
#### How can I manage cell selection and deselection?
See discussion at [#184](https://github.com/Instagram/IGListKit/issues/184).
#### I have a *huge* data set and [`-peformUpdatesAnimated: completion:`](https://instagram.github.io/IGListKit/Classes/IGListAdapter.html#/c:objc(cs)IGListAdapter(im)performUpdatesAnimated:completion:) is *super* slow. What do I do?
If you have multiple thousands of items and you cannot batch them in, you'll see performance issues with `-peformUpdatesAnimated: completion:`. The real bottle neck behind the scenes here is `UICollectionView` attempting to insert so many cells at once. Instead, call [`-reloadDataWithCompletion:`](https://instagram.github.io/IGListKit/Classes/IGListAdapter.html#/c:objc(cs)IGListAdapter(im)reloadDataWithCompletion:) when you first load data, which will be super fast. Behind the scenes, this method *does not* do any diffing and simply calls `-reloadData` on `UICollectionView`. For subsequent updates, you can then use `-peformUpdatesAnimated: completion:`.
