The Svelte ecosystem has matured fast in the last year, but one thing I kept hitting was the data grid problem. If you wanted a real one, your options were:
TanStack Table (Svelte adapter). Headless only, multi-framework. You build the entire DOM layer yourself. Beautiful primitives, but you still ship a thousand lines before you have a sortable table.
AG Grid via a Svelte wrapper. Production-grade, but the React shape underneath fights Svelte 5 runes the moment you try anything reactive.
svelte-headless-table. Lovely for small tables, not built for 100k rows with virtualization.
None of them felt right for the Svelte 5 era. So we spent the last year building one: SvGrid.
