EditableGrid is an open source JavaScript library aimed at turning tables into fully editable components. Its API is focused on simplicity : only a few lines of code are necessary to get your first editable grid up and running.
Originally, EditableGrid was a component developed for Hiflow Suite. Thereafter, we decided to factorize it into an external library. We think that this tool can be useful in other web projects. This is why we chose to publish it under the MIT Licence. We use Open Source software everyday and we wanted to offer our small contribution. If you use EditableGrid, feel free to tell us. The best motivation is to know that our work is used and appreciated.
