- Exporting to excel is simple. You are provided the final data model after all processing/filtering/sorting/etc is done, and you are free to use whatever means you want to provide that data to your users, eg. The 'xlsx' npm package could do this easily.

- Searching/Filter is quite advanced. You can search/filter on any derived model of the data regardless of the display or format of that data.

- Sorting can also be 100% customized and can be configured to use any derived sorting mechanism that you choose or build, regardless of display or format.
