I am working on a browser plugin that lets you edit Supabase database tables just like Excel, until it's ready. Then you switch to the main branch and the tables will be read only

Even though it is headless by design , it is still good to have a good looking default UI if you want better adoption.
Agree!
I am working on a platform called ikverdienbeter.nl (i deserve better) that educates people on recognizing healthy behaviour and healthy boundaries. I take snippets from popular tv, like dating shows, and mark the "red flags" on a timeline. For instance: "here at time 1:05 you see the woman gaslight the man. Gaslighting means [...]".
Using AI for auto subtitles and actor matching. Will build some auto deploy fragment to social media as well. I think these short fragments will do well op TikTok.
What are some of the more obscure requirements people have on data grids?
Well not really obscure, but some want formulas, some want advanced filters, grouping/pivoting. Nothing that's not done before but you don't want to say yes to all these things as the product will lose its core identity and strength.
So I will release my new data grid component based on my own toolkit, and if people want tweaks or "add these features", I will demonstrate them the toolkit.
I am working on DataGrid Toolkit. Based on my experiences building and selling (Excel like) data grids, people always look for your data grid, "but can it do this"? With DataGrid Toolkit, a developer can choose his own building blocks/modules and make a more Excel-like data grid, or make a more DataTables style traditional paginated table. The toolkit is headless and stateless by design and comes with different renderers. Canvas, html or some hybrid. It is written in Typescript and the data store is in Rust/Webassembly.

I think this website is beautiful in its simplicity
DataGridXL, an Excel-like data grid for JavaScript. The manual Excel-like step is not going anywere soon is my estimate. https://datagridxl.com
What a brilliant blog. Author puts a lot of love in it, that's clear! Thanks for sharing, read the whole thing. Made me feel kinda stupid for not using CSS Grid more... ;-)
