| 6 | +TanStack Table provides framework-specific devtools adapters that plug into the [TanStack Devtools](https://tanstack.com/devtools) multi-panel UI. |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +The table devtools let you inspect registered table instances, switch between multiple tables, and inspect features, state, options, rows, and columns in real time. |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +> [!NOTE] |
| 11 | +> By default, the framework adapters only include the live devtools in development mode. In production builds they export no-op implementations unless you opt into the `/production` entrypoints. |
| 12 | +
|
| 13 | +## Installation |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +Install the TanStack Devtools host package and the Table adapter for your framework: |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +### React |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +```sh |
| 20 | +npm install @tanstack/react-devtools @tanstack/react-table-devtools |
| 21 | +``` |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +### Preact |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +```sh |
| 26 | +npm install @tanstack/preact-devtools @tanstack/preact-table-devtools |
| 27 | +``` |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +### Solid |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +```sh |
| 32 | +npm install @tanstack/solid-devtools @tanstack/solid-table-devtools |
| 33 | +``` |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +### Vue |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +```sh |
| 38 | +npm install @tanstack/vue-devtools @tanstack/vue-table-devtools |
| 39 | +``` |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +Angular, Lit, Svelte, and vanilla do not currently ship dedicated table devtools adapters. |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +## Setup Pattern |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +The recommended setup has two parts: |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +1. Mount `TanStackDevtools` at the app root with `tableDevtoolsPlugin()` |
| 48 | +2. Call `useTanStackTableDevtools(table, name?)` immediately after creating each table |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +If you register multiple tables, the Table panel shows a selector so you can switch between them. |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +## React Setup |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +```tsx |
| 55 | +import React from 'react' |
| 56 | +import ReactDOM from 'react-dom/client' |
| 57 | +import { useTable } from '@tanstack/react-table' |
| 58 | +import { TanStackDevtools } from '@tanstack/react-devtools' |
| 59 | +import { |
| 60 | + tableDevtoolsPlugin, |
| 61 | + useTanStackTableDevtools, |
| 62 | +} from '@tanstack/react-table-devtools' |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | +function App() { |
| 65 | + const table = useTable({ |
| 66 | + // ... |
| 67 | + }) |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | + useTanStackTableDevtools(table, 'Users Table') |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | + return <AppContent table={table} /> |
| 72 | +} |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | +ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('root')!).render( |
| 75 | + <React.StrictMode> |
| 76 | + <App /> |
| 77 | + <TanStackDevtools plugins={[tableDevtoolsPlugin()]} /> |
| 78 | + </React.StrictMode>, |
| 79 | +) |
| 80 | +``` |
| 81 | + |
| 82 | +See the [React row-selection example](./framework/react/examples/row-selection). |
| 83 | + |
| 84 | +## Preact Setup |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | +```tsx |
| 87 | +import { render } from 'preact' |
| 88 | +import { useTable } from '@tanstack/preact-table' |
| 89 | +import { TanStackDevtools } from '@tanstack/preact-devtools' |
| 90 | +import { |
| 91 | + tableDevtoolsPlugin, |
| 92 | + useTanStackTableDevtools, |
| 93 | +} from '@tanstack/preact-table-devtools' |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | +function App() { |
| 96 | + const table = useTable({ |
| 97 | + // ... |
| 98 | + }) |
| 99 | + |
| 100 | + useTanStackTableDevtools(table, 'Users Table') |
| 101 | + |
| 102 | + return <AppContent table={table} /> |
| 103 | +} |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +render( |
| 106 | + <> |
| 107 | + <App /> |
| 108 | + <TanStackDevtools plugins={[tableDevtoolsPlugin()]} /> |
| 109 | + </>, |
| 110 | + document.getElementById('root')!, |
| 111 | +) |
| 112 | +``` |
| 113 | + |
| 114 | +See the [Preact sorting example](./framework/preact/examples/sorting). |
| 115 | + |
| 116 | +## Solid Setup |
| 117 | + |
| 118 | +```tsx |
| 119 | +import { render } from 'solid-js/web' |
| 120 | +import { createTable } from '@tanstack/solid-table' |
| 121 | +import { TanStackDevtools } from '@tanstack/solid-devtools' |
| 122 | +import { |
| 123 | + tableDevtoolsPlugin, |
| 124 | + useTanStackTableDevtools, |
| 125 | +} from '@tanstack/solid-table-devtools' |
| 126 | + |
| 127 | +function App() { |
| 128 | + const table = createTable({ |
| 129 | + // ... |
| 130 | + }) |
| 131 | + |
| 132 | + useTanStackTableDevtools(table, 'Users Table') |
| 133 | + |
| 134 | + return <AppContent table={table} /> |
| 135 | +} |
| 136 | + |
| 137 | +render( |
| 138 | + () => ( |
| 139 | + <> |
| 140 | + <App /> |
| 141 | + <TanStackDevtools plugins={[tableDevtoolsPlugin()]} /> |
| 142 | + </> |
| 143 | + ), |
| 144 | + document.getElementById('root')!, |
| 145 | +) |
| 146 | +``` |
| 147 | + |
| 148 | +See the [Solid row-selection example](./framework/solid/examples/row-selection). |
| 149 | + |
| 150 | +## Vue Setup |
| 151 | + |
| 152 | +```ts |
| 153 | +// main.ts |
| 154 | +import { createApp, defineComponent, h } from 'vue' |
| 155 | +import { TanStackDevtools } from '@tanstack/vue-devtools' |
| 156 | +import { tableDevtoolsPlugin } from '@tanstack/vue-table-devtools' |
| 157 | +import App from './App.vue' |
| 158 | + |
| 159 | +const Root = defineComponent({ |
| 160 | + setup() { |
| 161 | + return () => [ |
| 162 | + h(App), |
| 163 | + h(TanStackDevtools, { |
| 164 | + plugins: [tableDevtoolsPlugin()], |
| 165 | + }), |
| 166 | + ] |
| 167 | + }, |
| 168 | +}) |
| 169 | + |
| 170 | +createApp(Root).mount('#app') |
| 171 | +``` |
| 172 | + |
| 173 | +```vue |
| 174 | +<script setup lang="ts"> |
| 175 | +import { useTable } from '@tanstack/vue-table' |
| 176 | +import { useTanStackTableDevtools } from '@tanstack/vue-table-devtools' |
| 177 | +
|
| 178 | +const table = useTable({ |
| 179 | + // ... |
| 180 | +}) |
| 181 | +
|
| 182 | +useTanStackTableDevtools(table, 'Users Table') |
| 183 | +</script> |
| 184 | +``` |
| 185 | + |
| 186 | +See the [Vue row-selection example](./framework/vue/examples/row-selection). |
| 187 | + |
| 188 | +## Naming Tables |
| 189 | + |
| 190 | +The optional second argument lets you label a table in the devtools selector: |
| 191 | + |
| 192 | +```ts |
| 193 | +useTanStackTableDevtools(table, 'Orders Table') |
| 194 | +``` |
| 195 | + |
| 196 | +If you omit the name, the devtools assign fallback names such as `Table 1` and `Table 2`. |
| 197 | + |
| 198 | +## Production Builds |
| 199 | + |
| 200 | +If you need the live devtools in production, import from the `/production` entrypoint for your framework package: |
| 201 | + |
| 202 | +```tsx |
| 203 | +import { tableDevtoolsPlugin } from '@tanstack/react-table-devtools/production' |
| 204 | +import { useTanStackTableDevtools } from '@tanstack/react-table-devtools/production' |
| 205 | +``` |
| 206 | + |
| 207 | +Equivalent `/production` entrypoints are available for the Preact, Solid, and Vue adapters as well. |
