We've created several demos to showcase AG Grid's rich feature set across different use cases. See them in action below, or interact with them on our Demo page.
AG Grid is easy to set up - all you need to do is provide your data and define your column structure. Read on for vanilla JavaScript installation instructions, or refer to our framework-specific guides for React, Angular and Vue.
$ npm install --save ag-grid-community
1. Provide a Container
Load the AG Grid library and create a blank container div:
<html lang="en">
<head>
<!-- Includes all JS & CSS for the JavaScript Data Grid -->
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/ag-grid-community/dist/ag-grid-community.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<!-- Your Data Grid container -->
<div id="myGrid"></div>
</body>
</html>
2. Instantiating the JavaScript Data Grid
Create the Data Grid inside of your container div using createGrid
.
// Grid Options: Contains all of the Data Grid configurations
const gridOptions = {};
// Your Javascript code to create the Data Grid
const myGridElement = document.querySelector('#myGrid');
agGrid.createGrid(myGridElement, gridOptions);
3. Define Rows and Columns
// Grid Options: Contains all of the Data Grid configurations
const gridOptions = {
// Row Data: The data to be displayed.
rowData: [
{ make: 'Tesla', model: 'Model Y', price: 64950, electric: true },
{ make: 'Ford', model: 'F-Series', price: 33850, electric: false },
{ make: 'Toyota', model: 'Corolla', price: 29600, electric: false },
],
// Column Definitions: Defines the columns to be displayed.
columnDefs: [{ field: 'make' }, { field: 'model' }, { field: 'price' }, { field: 'electric' }],
};
4. Styling the JavaScript Data Grid
Add the ag-theme-quartz
CSS class to your Data Grid container div to apply the Data Grid's theme.
<!-- Your Data Grid container -->
<div id="myGrid" class="ag-theme-quartz" style="height: 500px"></div>

AG Grid is fully customisable, both in terms of appearance and functionality. There are many ways in which the grid can be customised and we provide a selection of tools to help create those customisations.
You can create your own Custom Components to customise the behaviour of the grid. For example, you can customise how cells are rendered, how values are edited and also create your own filters.
There are a number of different Component Types that you can provide to the grid, including:
- Cell Component: To customise the contents of a cell.
- Header Component: To customise the header of a column and column groups.
- Edit Component: To customise the editing of a cell.
- Filter Component: For custom column filter that appears inside the column menu.
- Floating Filter: For custom column floating filter that appears inside the column menu.
- Date Component: To customise the date selection component in the date filter.
- Loading Component: To customise the loading cell row when using Server Side Row Model.
- Overlay Component: To customise loading and no rows overlay components.
- Status Bar Component: For custom status bar components.
- Tool Panel Component: For custom tool panel components.
- Tooltip Component: For custom cell tooltip components.
- Menu Item Component: To customise the menu items shown in the Column and Context Menus.
To supply a custom cell renderer and filter components to the Grid, create a direct reference to your component within the gridOptions.columnDefs
property:
gridOptions = {
columnDefs: [
{
field: 'country', // The column to add the component to
cellRenderer: CountryCellRenderer, // Your custom cell component
filter: CountryFilter, // Your custom filter component
},
],
};
AG Grid has 4 themes, each available in light
& dark
modes. We also supply each theme with an auto
mode that can toggle the theme based on the users' system preferences:
Quartz | Material |
---|---|
|
|
Alpine | Balham |
|
|
To apply a theme, add the relevant CSS Class to the Data Grid container. For example, to apply the Quartz theme, use the CSS class ag-theme-quartz
:
<div id="myGrid" style="height: 150px; width: 600px" class="ag-theme-quartz"></div>
All AG Grid themes can be customised using CSS variables, or you can create a new theme from scratch with the help of our Theme Builder or Figma Design System.

If you've made it this far, you may be interested in our latest project: AG Charts - The best JavaScript Charting library in the world.
Initially built to power Integrated Charts in AG Grid, we open-sourced this project in 2018. Having seen the steady rise in popularity since then, we have decided to invest in AG Charts with a dedicated Enterprise version (ag-charts-enterprise
) in addition to our continued support of ag-charts-community
