Anyone here got any experience of Grid.JS (a sortable Javascript grid)

[Mike Lewis]

Does anyone here have any experience of Grid.JS. This is a JavaScript grid that supports sortable columns and global search. I am thinking of using it in my next application, but I am a little worried about gaps in the documentation, and also that they don't appear to have an active support forum or other support options (which is understandable, given that the product is free).

I don't have any specific questions just now, but I would be interested in knowing how well known the product its.

I haven't used grid.js but have used DataTables.js https://datatables.net/ on several projects and had good success.

. For simple tables it appears to be an excellent addition

I had thought of using it, but without a massive rewrite there is no way I could use it with my "random" inter-leaved tables.

Agree with mm above. Grid.JS is fine for simple tables but would find something else if your project is complex.

It seems to have support still: https://github.com/grid-js/gridjs

Thanks for all your replies ...

Tom, I've just given Datatables.js a quick run-through. It looks good. I was able to get a very simple grid up and running quite easily, which is more than I could with Grid.js. Plus they see to have an active support forum. So I might go with that.

I'll work on this some more and report back.
