A small, dependency-free JavaScript library that adds client-side sorting to HTML tables. It supports extensible sort types (number, date, custom) via plugin scripts and works in all major browsers.
Use cases
- sort html table columns by clicking headers
- add client-side table sorting without jquery
- sort table by date or number in javascript
- lightweight tablesorter for plain javascript
- customize sort behavior for table columns
- exclude certain columns from table sorting
When to choose
- you need tiny, dependency-free table sorting in vanilla JS
- you want broad legacy browser support
- you need custom sort types via a simple extension API
When to avoid
- you need server-side or paginated data sorting
- you want a full data grid with filtering and virtualization
- your project already uses a large UI framework with built-in table components
