Flutter DataGrid (DataTable) library

The Flutter DataTable or DataGrid is used to display and manipulate data in a tabular view. It is built from the ground up to achieve the best possible performance, even when loading large amounts data.


Hive

Hive is a lightweight and blazing fast key-value database written in pure Dart. Inspired by Bitcask.

Features

  • Cross platform: mobile, desktop, browser

  • Great performance (see benchmark)

  • Simple, powerful, & intuitive API

  • Strong encryption built in

  • NO native dependencies

  • Batteries included

Hive is also one of the best options when it comes to cross-platform support. You don't have to include binaries, and it works in the browser using IndexedDB.


Hive is very performant because it has little overhead compared to relational databases. The API is very close to how the data is stored on the disk.

Key-value databases can be used to store almost any kind of data. For example:

  • User profiles

  • Session information

  • Article/blog comments

  • Messages

  • Shopping cart contents

  • Product categories

  • Binary data

  • etc.
