## Lazy Loading

Lazy loading is useful when you are dealing with large hierarchical data sources and would like to avoid the delays involved in loading the entire data set at once.

The TreeView control makes lazy-loading super easy. Only two steps are required:

1. Set the items property in the parent node data item to an empty array.
2. Set the TreeView's lazyLoadFunction property to a function to be called when the user expands the node. This function takes two parameters: the parent node and a callback function to be invoked when the data becomes available.
