## What it is
A React component library providing CSVLink and CSVDownload components to generate and download CSV files on the fly from arrays, objects, or strings. It handles browser download behavior including legacy browser quirks like IE11 and Safari.

## Use cases
- export table data to csv in react
- download report as csv from react app
- generate csv file from array of objects
- add download csv button to react component
- export excel-compatible csv from frontend data
- trigger csv download on button click

## When to choose
- you need client-side CSV export in a React app
- your data is already in the browser as arrays or objects
- you want simple declarative components with headers and download links

## When to avoid
- you need to parse or read CSV files rather than generate them
- you are not using React
- you need server-side streaming of very large CSV exports

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: csv, serialization, ui-components, file-system
- domain: frontend, web-development, files, spreadsheets
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: react, csv-export, download-link, excel, reporting, web-server, nodejs
