10 Best jQuery Data Grid Plugins to Creating Data Layouts for 2014 or 2015



Sorting is really helpful, if you are having heavy data sets like table views. You can handing the list views using jQuery sorter plug-ins. The sort plugins allow you to control placement, order, and organization of the page table elements. You can build the dynamic tables using jQuery sorter plug-ins. These plugins are user friendly as they are very simple to use. Here is 10 best jQuery table sorter plugins are:


gridster.js

gridster.js
This is an absolutely spectacular plugin, and you can do pretty much anything with it. Gridster has a smooth design style, and has plenty of demos to showcase itself. I love how easy it is to build draggable widgets for any type of project, plus it’s all intuitive.
The documentation is easy enough so that a child can understand it, and there is also an API available. Great little plugin.

jqGrid

jqGrid is an Ajax-enabled JavaScript control that provides solutions for representing and manipulating tabular data on the web. Since the grid is a client-side solution loading data dynamically through Ajax callbacks, it can be integrated with any server-side technology, including PHP, ASP, Java Servlets, JSP, ColdFusion, and Perl.

HTML5 Sortable

HTML5 Sortable
I love this, it’s so lightweight and easy to use. It’s also utilizing flat UI style, and can be easily modified to suit your project. You can easily create lists that you can either drag, or sort according to your own needs. It’s possible to have both grid style layouts and also list style.

Mason.js

MASON.JS
Mason was created to solve a problem with most grid system currently available. Gaps. When using Masonry, Isotope or any of the other grid plugins out there sometimes your grid will contain gaps or ragged edges. Mason was made to fill those gaps in.
It’s a pretty technical explanation for the average man who needs a decent grid style plugin, but this is definitely one of the better choices from the whole list, due to its dedication to building solid and aligned grid system.

Grid—A—Licious

Grid A Licious
This is the go-to plugin when you need fluid, floating grid layouts for your projects. It’s totally responsive, visit the demo page for a preview, and there is nothing more to it. I recommend hitting CTRL+A on the demo page to see the text that’s hidden inside of the grids.

Freewall

Freewall   jQuery plugin for creating grid layouts
Freewall is incredibly rich with functions that can help you to build any grid type imaginable, be it Pinterest or Windows 8 Metro style; it has got the capability to do it all. I couldn’t help but think how useful this particular grid plugin could be to an image site.
Freewall is all-in-one solution for creating dynamic grid layouts for desktop, mobile and tablet.

RowGrid.js

You should use this for smaller projects, most likely portfolios and similar stuff. It’s a very neat, and minimal grid plugin; but doesn’t do much more than place images in straight rows. Though, it does its function well, and deserves to be on the list.

Flex

A fluid asymmetrical animated grid plugin for jQuery, or in other words – it’s a plugin that will allow you to build a grid like gallery, and then expand images once someone scrolls over them. I enjoy this stuff a lot, mostly because it offers something unique and something that not many other developers dare to try and build.

DataTables

DataTables  table plug in for jQuery
I was running low on these type of grid systems for this post, and so the last two posts are going to be focused on displaying data through a jQuery grid plugin. DataTables is a community of its own, and offers extensive documentation, community support and even extendable features through plugins.
It’s used by top companies like Amazon, and Open Library, which goes to show that they must be doing something right. You’ll find plenty of examples on the official website.

Ingrid

Ingrid  the jQuery Datagrid.
Ingrid is an unobtrusive jQuery component that adds datagrid behaviors like column resizing, paging, sorting, row and column styling (and more) to your tables. This is the perfect plugin to play with for beginners, to learn and explore the way of working with data in this way.
