Description
Description
Right now we use a DataGrid for all our complex tables, but it seems like we're hitting the limit of what we can achieve with it. This ticket is to look into a new table to use with more capabilities and to implement it for the BOM table. The criteria we want will be listed below. The goal would be to use this for the tasks lists as well if it's viable
Acceptance Criteria
- Easily inline editable rows
- Easy to add new items inline (as easy as using an excel doc)
- allow the user to filter/ sort columns
- Allow the user to adjust column width themselves
Proposed Solution
These are some alternatives that looked promising, you'll need to add the dependency and try them out a bit:

https://www.ag-grid.com/

Research direction
Start by locating the BOM table and its current DataGrid usage. Evaluate the linked TanStack Table editable-data example and AG Grid against the four acceptance criteria, including whether the result could also support task lists. Done means selecting and implementing a suitable table with inline editing, inline item creation, filtering, sorting, and user-adjustable column widths.
