How does this stack up against Ag-grid? The former is very strong in features from some experience using.

we are using ag-grid with react, and I can say the feature sets are very appealing and very nice. that said, ag-grid really needs to manage it's own state... like... it isn't like you can just pass a new rowData array, you have to use ag-grid's api (in react) to reconcile differences. something like Griddle, has a benefit in that respect and with the new direction Griddle's architecture is moving it won't be long before it gets a slew of new shiny features.

Ag-grid is feature packed but also bloated. The minified size is something like 600kb - it's insane.

Maybe, but for an intra-net app that's really negligible. For example, at work, one of our HR billing applications takes 3 full minutes to startup, and uses ActiveX running IE 8. We have to run VMs to use it, but its still in use.

When it comes to enterprise internal apps, the competition is pretty terrible, so you can mop up the field even when shipping something that'd be considered terrible bloated for a SaaS or consumer facing app.
