Table

Composable DataTable for React — pagination, selection, sorting, filters, editing, export, tree data, and keyboard navigation. Built on shadcn-style primitives; features are opt-in via props.

@itzsa/tableReact 18 / 19Tailwind v4

Installation#

Add the package, then wire Tailwind so utility classes inside the table are generated.

pnpm add @itzsa/table

In your global CSS (Tailwind v4):

@import "tailwindcss";
@source "../node_modules/@itzsa/table";
@import "@itzsa/table/styles.css";

Peers

Peer deps: react and react-dom ^18 or ^19. Import styles once at the app root.

Getting started#

Minimal client table. Serial numbers (SN) default on — pass sn={false} to hide.

import { DataTable } from "@itzsa/table";

const data = [
  { id: "1", name: "Ada Lovelace", role: "Mathematician" },
  { id: "2", name: "Alan Turing", role: "Computer scientist" },
];

const columns = [
  { key: "name", header: "Name", sortable: true },
  { key: "role", header: "Role" },
];

export function UsersTable() {
  return (
    <DataTable
      data={data}
      columns={columns}
      pageSize={10}
      showPagination
      sn
    />
  );
}

Opt-in by default

Almost every behavioral feature is off by default except SN and pagination. Turn on what you need with props like selectable, editable, showExport.

Examples#

Live demos from this docs app. Data and serializable props live under src/app/table/data and props/.

Full-featured grid#

Cell edit, detail panel, filters, export, keyboard nav, actions, and custom page size (type or pick).

CSS & theming#

Import package CSS once, then override via classNames / styles. Consumer classes win.

<DataTable
  classNames={{
    root: "border-border",
    header: "bg-muted/40",
    row: "hover:bg-muted/30",
    pagination: "bg-card",
  }}
  styles={{
    root: { borderRadius: 12 },
    headerCell: { fontWeight: 600 },
  }}
  data={rows}
  columns={columns}
/>

Merge order

Internal classes → classNames.* (via tailwind-merge) → styles.* inline. Column className / headerClassName apply on that column’s cells.
