Or tabulator http://tabulator.info/ .. I don't see filtering though.

I was recently evaluating a few of these to display large number of items (tabulator, aggrid, custom solution using react-virtualized etc)

Unfortunately if you are planning to use tabulator (in an enterprise environment for example), I would advice against it for a few reasons:

- No tests (atleast I did not find them when I looked into it)

- I dont normally critique the codebase but I found it to be a bit unorganized and that did not inspire confidence. Basically I found it be non DRY. However I found it easy to understand and make changes

- Being developed by one person and I found little support and response when I raised issues and PR

We've been using tabulator for few years now on an internal project. It's been doing quite well so far, has a lot of features out of the box and is easy to customize.

To balance my critique, I would add that I found that tabulator had support for most number of features out of the box of all that I tested and was the easiest to customize
