Review on Handsontable by Nick Kirschenmann

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Handsontable is an open source JavaScript library for creating interactive HTML5 tables.

Handsontable is an excellent library that makes working with large datasets easy and intuitive. It is the perfect tool for generating complex tables with rich data visualization. It allows for great flexibility when formatting columns, rows and cells as well as cell styling. The development team behind the library is responsive and eager to help with any feature requests or bugs reported. I recommend Handsontable to anyone who works with big datasets and needs a powerful way to visualize them. Handsontable's API documentation could use some improvement; it doesn't seem very complete (especially compared to other libraries). But overall it has been useful for my own project, which involves importing massive amounts of data into Excel files from various sources.

Pros
  • Excellent support, both by email and through the GitHub issues tracker.
  • Flexible styling, allowing many options for column widths, row heights, number of columns, etc.
  • Very customizable.
Cons
  • None that I know of.
