Research direction

No source files or tests are named. Start with the proposed django_table entry point and the query_set and columns interface, then compare the listed Material UI, Data Grid, TanStack Table, and Django-Tables2 directions before choosing a design. Done means a table-rendering component can conveniently render Django querysets with a settled interface.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

complexity: 1 (high) priority: 3 (low)
Current Situation

There is currently has no support for conveniently rendering tables from Django querysets.

Proposed Actions

Create a table rendering component. The interface can be developed a few ways:

  1. Inspired by Material UI Table
  2. Inspired by Data Grid
  3. Inspired by TanStack Table
  4. Inspired by some other ReactJS table library
  5. Compatible with Django-Tables2 interface.
    • This option is iffy, since it would be difficult to attach ReactPy event handlers to things.
