Is it as fast as the demo with custom cell renderers?

#12Been using AgGrid but looking for a replacement. I tried to load a CSV of 100k items here and got a "RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded."

#13Can't see any mention of multisort. Does it have multisort? Great look and feel!

#14How does it compare with https://grid.glideapps.com/ ?
Or tabulator http://tabulator.info/ .. I don't see filtering though.

#15The performance here is amazing. Well done! I'm desperately searching for a way to replace old Handsontable (before they closed source), but the license here for DataGrid XL makes it impossible to easily bring into a large FOSS project. Some ideas for licensing: dual license MIT and commercial. Feed advanced features and support into the commercial while keeping the MIT version fast, performant, extendable.
I think it was handsontable I burned myself on: got client to sponsor/pay for support for a nice open source tool and shortly after they went closed source.
Same with caddy, except that time it was my money.
Some times I wonder if I should avoid giving money to open source projects because it seems to trigger the idea that one can make a whole lot of more money by selling out.

What is motivating you to look for a replacement? We are evaluating grids and AgGrid is the front runner currently though really rather heavyweight for our use cases.

#17One million cell made me though of https://lumino.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples/datagrid/in... that has a "trillion" cell demo :-) All the best.

Looks quite similar to me. Both are using canvas (combined with off screen rendering?) under the covers which seems to be key to achieving this level of performance.
No reason to sacrifice accessibility and styling in the name of performance: https://github.com/jpmorganchase/regular-table

With a virtual data model it doesn't really matter, here's our 2 trillion cell model https://bl.ocks.org/texodus/483a42e7b877043714e18bea6872b039

I was recently evaluating a few of these to display large number of items (tabulator, aggrid, custom solution using react-virtualized etc)
Unfortunately if you are planning to use tabulator (in an enterprise environment for example), I would advice against it for a few reasons:
- No tests (atleast I did not find them when I looked into it)
- I dont normally critique the codebase but I found it to be a bit unorganized and that did not inspire confidence. Basically I found it be non DRY. However I found it easy to understand and make changes
- Being developed by one person and I found little support and response when I raised issues and PR
