Jacksontable is an open source JavaScript/HTML5 data grid component with spreadsheet look & feel. It is forked from HandsonTable community edition 6.2.2 right before it was closed-sourced at version 7. It easily integrates with any data source and comes with a variety of useful features like data binding, validation, sorting or powerful context menu. It is available for Vue, React, Angular and Polymer.
If you are looking for an extended version, try out Handsontable Pro.
