I like the approach AGGrid uses - they provide a viewport based interface that the grid uses to display data, and you can implement that interface on top of your data model - https://www.ag-grid.com/javascript-data-grid/viewport/. Unfortunately it's only available in their enterprise version, but this approach scales to both grid and chart based UIs. D3 has a bit of that flavor as well, since you can map visual attributes into your underlying data any way you'd like.
