table
TanStack Table is a headless, framework-agnostic datagrid library that supplies table logic—sorting, filtering, grouping, aggregation, pagination, and row selection—while leaving all markup and styling to the developer. It ships adapters for React, Vue, Solid, Svelte, Angular, and Lit.

npm install tableOur analysis
A headless table/datagrid engine that computes all the state and logic for complex tables but renders nothing itself, giving developers complete control over markup, components, and styles via thin framework adapters.
When to use table
Use it when you need full ownership of table markup and design (custom cells, styling, virtualization integration) while offloading the heavy logic of sorting, multi-column filtering, grouping, aggregation, expansion, column pinning/resizing, and client- or server-side pagination. Ideal for design systems and apps wanting consistent table behavior across React/Vue/Solid/Svelte/Angular.
When not to
If you want a batteries-included grid with prebuilt UI, theming, and enterprise features (Excel export, complex editing, master/detail) out of the box, a styled grid like AG Grid or MUI X Data Grid will get you there faster. The headless model means you write more boilerplate for rendering.
Strengths
- Truly headless — no style or markup lock-in, integrates with any design system
- Strong, fully-typed TypeScript API
- One core, many framework adapters keeps behavior consistent
- Composable feature model (row models) keeps bundles lean and tree-shakeable
- Pairs cleanly with TanStack Virtual for large datasets and supports server-side workflows
Trade-offs
- Steeper learning curve and more boilerplate than ready-made grids since you build the UI
- No built-in styling, theming, or prebuilt cell editors
- Some advanced enterprise features must be assembled manually
- Non-React adapters historically lag the React adapter in maturity and docs
- Major version migrations (e.g. to v9) require API adjustments
Maturity
Very mature and widely adopted (~28k stars), backed by the well-maintained TanStack ecosystem with active development, a v9 line, AI agent skills via TanStack Intent, and broad production usage.

Using an AI Coding Agent?
TanStack Table ships TanStack Intent skills inside each adapter package. After installing the library, run:
npx @tanstack/intent@latest install
to add skill-loading guidance for your agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, etc.). The same CLI also exposes intent list to browse available skills and intent load <skill> to print one for inspection. Skills version with the library — your agent gets guidance that matches the version of @tanstack/<framework>-table you installed. Only available for v9 and above.
