I usually wonder whether I can use <List> without dataSource/renderRow, but specifying <ListItem> manually. It works but I’m not sure if it is legal (e.g. may not work in future versions) because it’s not mentioned in this tutorial. Then I found the pattern in the tutorial. So I guess it is legal.
<Ons.List>
<Ons.ListHeader>Bindings</Ons.ListHeader>
<Ons.ListItem>Vue</Ons.ListItem>
<Ons.ListItem>Angular</Ons.ListItem>
<Ons.ListItem>React</Ons.ListItem>
</Ons.List>
