It works by defining a Table subclass that declares columns and metadata, then passing that table class to a view mixin or template tag. The package handles pagination, column sorting, and template rendering without requiring JavaScript, and supports automatic table generation from Django models.\n\nThe package is designed for developers who need to display tabular data in Django templates. It reduces repetitive HTML generation and provides a declarative, model-like syntax familiar to Django users. It works with any iterable data source but has special integration with Django querysets, making it particularly useful for displaying database results with sorting and pagination controls.","worth_installing":"Yes. django-tables2 is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, carries a permissive BSD license, and solves a common Django problem with low install friction. It is well-suited for any Django project that needs to display tabular data with pagination and sorting."},"id":"django-tables2","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-tables2","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-tables2.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/django-tables2/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-04-13","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"django-tables2","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Table/data-grid framework for Django"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":1017635,"position":4498,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"3.0.0"}
