React Data Table Component

A simple but flexible React data table. Working table in 10 lines. Sorting, selection, pagination, expandable rows, and theming are opt-in props. No atomic HTML table knowledge required.

react-data-table-component sits between "render everything yourself" headless toolkits and full "configure-the-grid" frameworks. It's for cases where the table is a means, not the product: admin panels, dashboards, internal tools, MVPs. If you need an Excel clone or a 100k-row analytics grid, there are better-suited libraries for that.

Quick start

import DataTable from 'react-data-table-component';

const columns = [
  { name: 'Title', selector: row => row.title, sortable: true },
  { name: 'Year', selector: row => row.year, sortable: true },
  { name: 'Director', selector: row => row.director },
];

export default function Movies() {
  return <DataTable columns={columns} data={data} pagination />;
}

Key Features

• Sorting, row selection, expandable rows, and pagination (all opt-in props)
• Themeable via CSS variables; deeply customizable via customStyles
• Accessible (role, aria-sort, aria-selected, keyboard navigation)
• Responsive (x-scroll / flex)
• TypeScript types bundled
• SSR-safe; ships "use client" for Next.js App Router (import directly into a Server Component file)
• Headless hooks exported for full markup/style control when you outgrow the defaults
