Wijmo FlexGrid — Bootstrapped with create-react-app

This is a quick and very simple demo of a data grid-containing React app. As you can see, the app contains just a few lines of code thanks to create-react-app and the Wijmo FlexGrid.

You can view an online demo at Glitch or you can keep reading to get the demo up and running on your own machine!

Getting Started

First, clone this repo to your machine:

git clone https://github.com/cgatno/flexgrid-react.git

Next, install dependencies. I used Yarn for this project, but you can use NPM without any issues! Either way, you'll definitely need Node.

cd flexgrid-react
yarn
# OR, if you don't have Yarn
npm install

You're all set! Now just run the project using

yarn start

or

npm start

How Does it Work?

Fortunately, Wijmo provides complete interoperability with React out of the box. This means you can hook into the React component lifecycle for all Wijmo controls and implement easy state-based data binding.

Since create-react-app takes care of all the React set up for you, and Wijmo is now available on NPM, it just takes a few minutes to set up an app like this one.
