## What it is
ngx-datatable is a feature-rich, lightweight Angular component for presenting large and complex datasets in tables. It supports virtual scrolling, sorting, pagination, column pinning, and theming with no external dependencies.

## Use cases
- render large datasets in an Angular table with virtual scrolling
- add client or server-side pagination and sorting to a data grid
- build a table with column reordering, resizing, and pinning
- implement multi-select rows with keyboard and checkbox support
- create a Material-themed data table in an Angular app

## When to choose
- you are building an Angular application that needs a performant data table
- you need a lightweight table component with no external dependencies
- you require flexible templating for headers and cells
- you need to handle large datasets with virtual DOM rendering

## When to avoid
- you are not using Angular as your frontend framework
- you need a full-featured spreadsheet or pivot grid with editing
- you prefer a framework-agnostic table library
