Shadcn Datatable Example
Browse complete, ready-to-use data tables built with Shadcn. From customer lists to inventory screens, each example ships with sorting, filters, and pagination already working.
Shadcn Datatable Examples: Sortable, Filterable React Tables
A table is easy until people start using it. Then somebody wants to sort by date, somebody else wants to select twenty rows and archive them, and the filter bar quietly becomes its own project. These shadcn datatable examples handle that part for you. Sorting, filters, row selection, actions and pagination are already built into finished screens, so you're picking a layout instead of wiring one up.
Every example is built with React, Tailwind CSS and shadcn/ui, and works with both Base UI and Radix UI. Open one, click around, and copy it once it behaves the way your users would expect.

What Is a Datatable Example?
A datatable example is a complete screen, not just a table's markup. It's the header, the toolbar, the rows, the row menu and the footer, all arranged and working together with sample data already in place.
That's what separates an example from a bare table: the behavior is already wired in. You're not stitching together sorting logic, a filter state, and a pagination component on your own, you're starting from a screen that already does all three.
Components Used in These Example Blocks
- shadcn/ui components Avatar, Badge, Button, Checkbox, Dropdown Menu, Input, Pagination, Progress and Select, all parts your project already has.
- Base UI or Radix UI Works with either, so there's nothing to change when you drop it into your project.
What You Get in Every Datatable Example
- Sorting and search. Reorder columns and narrow a long list without leaving the page.
- Filters. Status, category and plan filters that sit in the toolbar where people look for them.
- Row selection. Checkboxes on each row and in the header.
- Row actions. A menu per row for edit, delete or view, so the table doesn't fill up with buttons.
- Badges and progress bars. Status, plan and warning labels, plus progress indicators that read at a glance.
- Pagination. Every example pages through its rows, and some add a rows-per-page select.
- Dark mode. The examples follow your theme, so you can match your brand with the theme generator.
Types of Datatable Examples
- Transaction tables. The customer payments table fits payments, invoices and billing lists.
- Progress tables. The course progress and on-route vehicle tables suit anything with a completion state, like courses or deliveries.
- Inventory tables. The product inventory table handles stock and catalog data where filters and export matter.
- Account tables. The customers table works for customer, user and member lists.
Where to Use These Datatable Examples
Billing and finance tools use the payments-style table for invoices and transaction history, often paired with a statistics component for totals above the table. Learning platforms use the course progress layout alongside an onboarding feed to track what a user has completed. CRM and sales tools fit the customers table well, especially next to account settings for managing individual records.

FAQs
It's a complete table screen, not just markup: the toolbar, rows, row menu and pagination all work together with sample data already in place.
The sample data runs in the browser so the demos work without a backend. When your dataset gets too big for that, move sorting and filtering into your own API and keep the UI as it is.
The component is the building piece. A datatable example is a complete screen that already uses it with filters, selection and pagination.
Yes. Every block supports both, so you can use whichever primitive library your project already runs on.
Yes. The Shadcn Builder lets you drag Datatable blocks and other sections onto a page and export the code, so you can assemble a full layout without hand-coding it.
