# Best JavaScript Data Grid Libraries: Which One Is Right for Your App?

**[Syncfusion](https://daily.dev/sources/syncfusion)** · 13 min read · 8 upvotes · 8 comments

## Summary

A structured comparison of five JavaScript data grid libraries for 2026: AG Grid, TanStack Table, Syncfusion JavaScript DataGrid, Handsontable, and Kendo UI Grid. Covers three architectural approaches (component-based, headless, spreadsheet-oriented), key evaluation criteria including performance, editing, accessibility, export, and licensing, and provides use-case-specific recommendations. Also includes a production-readiness checklist and mentions notable alternatives like Tabulator, Grid.js, and MUI Data Grid.
