How to Implement react-table without typescript?

Question

How can I re-implement react-table (version 8) without using TypeScript? I want to add some tables to the React project using react-table. When I looked at the documentation (v8), I saw that all examples are implemented with TypeScript.

Answer 1

According to the official rep of react-table v8 it is Full rewrite to TypeScript . but you can implement this latest version of react-table without TypeScript , just convert your code from typescript to javascript

Example : this Is a basic react table written in the documentation of react table with TypeScript and converted to javascript :

Index.js :

import * as React from 'react'
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";

import './index.css'

import {
  createColumnHelper,
  flexRender,
  getCoreRowModel,
  useReactTable,
} from '@tanstack/react-table'



const defaultData  = [
  {
    firstName: 'tanner',
    lastName: 'linsley',
    age: 24,
    visits: 100,
    status: 'In Relationship',
    progress: 50,
  },
  {
    firstName: 'tandy',
    lastName: 'miller',
    age: 40,
    visits: 40,
    status: 'Single',
    progress: 80,
  },
  {
    firstName: 'joe',
    lastName: 'dirte',
    age: 45,
    visits: 20,
    status: 'Complicated',
    progress: 10,
  },
]

const columnHelper = createColumnHelper()

const columns = [
  columnHelper.accessor('firstName', {
    cell: info => info.getValue(),
    footer: info => info.column.id,
  }),
  columnHelper.accessor(row => row.lastName, {
    id: 'lastName',
    cell: info => <i>{info.getValue()}</i>,
    header: () => <span>Last Name</span>,
    footer: info => info.column.id,
  }),
  columnHelper.accessor('age', {
    header: () => 'Age',
    cell: info => info.renderValue(),
    footer: info => info.column.id,
  }),
  columnHelper.accessor('visits', {
    header: () => <span>Visits</span>,
    footer: info => info.column.id,
  }),
  columnHelper.accessor('status', {
    header: 'Status',
    footer: info => info.column.id,
  }),
  columnHelper.accessor('progress', {
    header: 'Profile Progress',
    footer: info => info.column.id,
  }),
]

function App() {
  const [data, setData] = React.useState(() => [...defaultData])
  const rerender = React.useReducer(() => ({}), {})[1]

  const table = useReactTable({
    data,
    columns,
    getCoreRowModel: getCoreRowModel(),
  })

  return (
    <div className="p-2">
      <table>
        <thead>
          {table.getHeaderGroups().map(headerGroup => (
            <tr key={headerGroup.id}>
              {headerGroup.headers.map(header => (
                <th key={header.id}>
                  {header.isPlaceholder
                    ? null
                    : flexRender(
                        header.column.columnDef.header,
                        header.getContext()
                      )}
                </th>
              ))}
            </tr>
          ))}

                <td key={cell.id}>
                  {flexRender(cell.column.columnDef.cell, cell.getContext())}
                </td>
              ))}
            </tr>
          ))}
        </tbody>
        <tfoot>
          {table.getFooterGroups().map(footerGroup => (
            <tr key={footerGroup.id}>
              {footerGroup.headers.map(header => (

                  {header.isPlaceholder
                    ? null
                    : flexRender(

      </table>

      <button onClick={() => rerender()} className="border p-2">

ReactDOM.render(
