Backgrid.js is a set of Backbone.js components for building semantic, easily stylable data grid widgets with a clean JavaScript API. It provides displaying, sorting, and inline editing of tabular data, with extra features like pagination and filtering available as extensions.

Use cases

  • render tabular data from a Backbone collection in a sortable HTML table
  • add inline cell editing to a data grid
  • build a paginated and filterable data table in the browser
  • style a data grid with plain CSS using semantic HTML table markup
  • customize grid cells with custom Backbone views
  • display computed columns in a data grid

When to choose

  • you are already using Backbone.js models and collections
  • you need a lightweight, modular grid with extensions for pagination and filtering
  • you want semantic HTML tables styled with plain CSS
  • you must support legacy browsers like IE8

When to avoid

  • you use a modern framework like React, Vue, or Angular
  • you need a maintained library with recent releases and active development
  • you need virtualized rendering for very large datasets
  • you want a batteries-included grid with built-in server-side integration
