Nested Table Example
Learn how to implement nested (hierarchical) tables using React Table Grid
This example demonstrates how to create nested tables where each parent row can expand to reveal a child table. This pattern is useful for displaying related details and hierarchical data.
Overview
In this example, you will learn how to:
- Define data with nested structures
- Configure the TableGrid to render nested rows
- Manage state for expanding/collapsing rows
- Customize the appearance of nested tables
Example
Key Concepts
- Nested Data Structure: Each parent row contains child data which can be displayed as a nested table.
- Row Expansion: Toggle the visibility of the nested table using state.
- Customization: Style and configure the nested table separately from the parent table.
Customization Tips
- Adjust the max height of the nested table according to your layout needs.
- Customize the row expansion button for better user interaction.
Best Practices
- Ensure that nested data is normalized for consistent rendering.
- Use unique keys for parent and child rows to maintain stability.
- Consider performance implications when rendering many nested rows.
Next Steps
- Experiment with different nested layouts.
- Combine nested tables with pagination for large datasets.
