Or tabulator http://tabulator.info/ .. I don't see filtering though.

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…

We've been using tabulator for few years now on an internal project. It's been doing quite well so far, has a lot of features out of the box and is easy to customize.

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

I wonder if this kind of ux is just for fun, like let me scroll through and have no actual sense of data. At the end of the day, finding something is via search and filter.

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

Funny. I just rolled my own datagrid for a portion of a larger application that already uses DataTables for various stuff. I wanted something that acted like this, was fast and allowed for easier row and column styling (including in the data itself). Also, faster and more flexible animated resizing.

I ended up using CSS grid divs and without any virtualization on my part, they're shockingly performant. Both Chrome and FF easily handle 1m cels which is more than my use case will ever need. They're really quick at blitting just the necessary cells, making it wayyy smoother than DataTables in virtual mode. And anything on an actual canvas tag...? forget about it.

To balance my critique, I would add that I found that tabulator had support for most number of features out of the box of all that I tested and was the easiest to customize

Been 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." https://www.datagridxl.com/demos/import-csv-data

AG Grid should be able to handle more than that:
