Hi All,

I haven't posted to this list in a hell of a long time but was active on the list back when I was building code for using SlickGrid in an app...

As a user of SlickGrid for a part of my business eCommerce application (mostly data admin), I'm happy to say that it is definitely a viable jQuery plugin that I have found to be very useful.for my business needs "today" in 2020.  I heavily customized it "years ago" in 2012-13 when SPA's (React, Backbone, Angular) were just starting to take off along with responsive design.

What I have done with SlickGrid was build dynamic views based on "defined tables and fields", all configurable within the application itself.  I have not really had to touch the codebase of my customized app up to this point, so I can tell you all who are reading this, I do not have any disappointments in the "grid" or any of the plugins I'd been able to add to it.  It runs on .NET with AJAX calls for everything including the defined columns - I modified code in SlickGrid to pass columns in dynamically.

Would I do anything differently or pick another plugin for a grid?  This was considered the best at the time.  There may be others now that do much of the same thing or better, however I'd only change a few things in my app if I were going to spend more time developing it.  Mind that this is before Node.js had any major traction with users and SASS compilation techniques were built yet.  Yes, I'd spend more time building it back up from that perspective and changing the way views are built from .NET to make it faster, but it definitely works for what I needed it to do...

So, if you're halfway decent at jQuery and understand how to dissect some SlickGrid code and the settings to build your views, I'd recommend it.  That's the level I was when I built my app codebase.

Cheers,

Steve
