Chapter 8. DataViews and Templates
The DataView component has a function similar to the grid—showing data in a formatted way—but it can be lighter or heavier, depending on how it's handled. When we say "formatted way", we mean that we use a template to render an HTML output for each record in the store.
For the rendering process, the DataView uses an Ext.XTemplate class, so we can give the proper output (HTML) and style to each record in the store. This component is very useful when you want to render data in a customized way and also don't require the functionality of the grid.
