Dynamic Data Tables - Open-Source Django Starter
DataTables are useful when we have to browse large amounts of data - This starter provides a module that manages automatically using DataTables in any app model.
Hello! This article presents the latest feature added to Soft UI Dashboard, a popular open-source starter powered by Django using a video material published on YouTube.
This new feature builds automatically a DataTables view for any model using a common set of controls: server-side pagination, search, and export in different formats: PDF, XLS, and CSV. Thanks for reading!
