4 pointsby robbiejsover 3 years ago
Hello HN,<p>I’m Robbert, the creator of DataGridXL.js. After 1,5 years of hard work I have just released version 2.<p>DataGridXL is a free (and commercial) editable data table library written in ES6.<p>My goal is to develop the most performant &amp; user-friendly spreadsheet-like data table out there:<p>- It has zero dependencies. You don’t need any framework to use DataGridXL.<p>- It is lightweight (~250kb) and easy to use. It does not even require messing with CSS.<p>- It has its own Virtual DOM implementation to prevent DOM errors.<p>- Developer friendly. Supports all modern web browsers<p>Please take a look at the performance demo (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.datagridxl.com&#x2F;demos&#x2F;one-million-cells" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.datagridxl.com&#x2F;demos&#x2F;one-million-cells</a>) to see the difference with other data grids out there. And let us know if you have any suggestions.<p>What&#x27;s new in version 2:<p>* Rapidly search cells via top bar, just like Google Sheets.<p>* Freeze any amount of rows and&#x2F;or columns.<p>* Hide and unhide rows and&#x2F;or columns, just like in Google Sheets.<p>* Multi-Range Selection<p>* Fullscreen Mode<p>* Input bar at the bottom, so it works on touch devices too.<p>DataGridXL on Github: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;DataGridXL&#x2F;DataGridXL2" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;DataGridXL&#x2F;DataGridXL2</a> DataGridXL on NPM: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.npmjs.com&#x2F;package&#x2F;@datagridxl&#x2F;datagridxl2" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.npmjs.com&#x2F;package&#x2F;@datagridxl&#x2F;datagridxl2</a> DataGridXL Docs: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;datagridxl.com&#x2F;docs" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;datagridxl.com&#x2F;docs</a><p>Please let me know if you have any suggestions or comments!
