The Chakra UI adapter for AdaptTable —
a batteries-included Chakra data table with sorting, filtering, URL-synced
state, selection + bulk actions, RTL, and dark mode. Built on the headless
@adapttable/core engine. (Targets Chakra UI v3.)
pnpm add @adapttable/chakra @adapttable/core @chakra-ui/react @emotion/react react react-domQuickstart
import { ChakraProvider, defaultSystem } from "@chakra-ui/react";
import { DataTable, useFrontendData, type ColumnDef } from "@adapttable/chakra";
const columns: ColumnDef<Person>[] = [
{ key: "name", header: "Name", accessor: (r) => r.name, sortable: true },
{ key: "city", header: "City", accessor: (r) => r.city },
];
export function People({ data }: { data: Person[] }) {
const source = useFrontendData({ data, columns });
return (
<ChakraProvider value={defaultSystem}>
<DataTable source={source} columns={columns} rowKey={(r) => r.id} />
</ChakraProvider>
);
}Dark mode follows Chakra's color mode; pass accentColor to tint accents.
Swap useFrontendData for useQuerySource to drive the same table from a
server-paginated query.
Features
- Automatic mobile cards — below the mobile breakpoint every row renders as a Chakra card (same filters, search, selection and URL state) and infinite scroll replaces the pager; tune per column with
mobileLabel/hideOnMobile, pin either layout withforceMobile. See it flip live. - Client or server data through one
TableSourcecontract — same props either way. - URL-synced search / sort / filters / page — shareable, deep-linkable links.
- Sorting via sortable headers.
- Filtering — a
DrawerorPopoverof filters plus removableTagchips, with a filter count on the trigger. - Selection + bulk actions using Chakra
Checkboxes, with confirm dialogs (bulkActions). - Row actions with optional confirm,
isHidden/isDisabledper row. - Row expansion — inline detail panels via
renderRowDetail. - Inline cell editing (
onCellEdit+editablecolumns) — text, number and select editors; Enter commits, Escape cancels, Tab moves on. Omit the handler and no cell opens. - Row grouping (
groupBy) with per-group aggregates sharing thesummaryRowmapper. - Column management — show/hide, reorder, pin (sticky) and resize, from a built-in menu.
- Saved views — name a filter/sort/column arrangement and switch between them.
- CSV export (
exportCsv) — current page or the full filtered set. - Virtualization (
virtualize) — opt-in row/card windowing for very large lists. - Pagination — prev/next pagination, or infinite scroll (auto by device).
- States —
Skeletonloading,Alerterror with retry, and an empty state. - RTL via
dir; dark mode via Chakra's color mode. - Customisation —
slots,className,size, injectableconfirm, and the full headless escape hatch via@adapttable/core.

Each clip is the real adapter, recorded on the live demo.
Row grouping — group rows by a column with per-group subtotals

Inline cell editing — double-click a cell; text, number and select editors

Filtering — type a bound and the table answers as you type

Column management — show, hide, reorder, pin and resize

RTL / Arabic — the whole table mirrors, not just the text
