Originally assigned to: @Adictya, @fezproof on GitHub.

ScrollBox causes application freeze when rendered with empty arrays (static or reactive).

Reproduction

import { render } from "@opentui/solid"

const BugDemo = () => {
  const items: string[] = [] // Causes freeze

  return (
    <scrollbox focused>
      {items.map((item) => (
        <text content={item} />
      ))}
    </scrollbox>
  )
}

render(() => <BugDemo />)

Expected vs Actual

Expected: Empty ScrollBox renders
Actual: Application freezes completely

Workaround

<Show when={items.length > 0}>
  <scrollbox>{items.map(...)}</scrollbox>
</Show>

Notes

Affects both const items = [] and createSignal([])
Works fine with non-empty arrays
Issue does not occur for the regular box component (e.g. <box>{[].map(() => <text>...</text>)}</box>)
