![The `<Datagrid>` component](./img/tutorial_post_list_less_columns.png)

You can find more advanced examples of `<Datagrid>` usage in the [demos](./Demos.md).
You can find more advanced examples of `<Datagrid>` usage in the [demos](./Demos.md).

The `<Datagrid>` is an **iterator** component: it gets an array of records from the `ListContext`, and iterates to display each record in a row. Other examples of iterator component are [`<SimpleList>`](./SimpleList.md) and [`<SingleFieldList>`](./SingleFieldList.md).

**Tip**: If you need more Datagrid features, check out these two alternative components:

- [`<EditableDatagrid>`](./EditableDatagrid.md)<img class="icon" src="./img/premium.svg" /> lets users edit the content right in the datagrid
- [`<DatagridAG>`](./DatagridAG.md)<img class="icon" src="./img/premium.svg" /> adds suport for column reordering, aggregation, pivoting, row grouping, infinite scroll, etc.
- [`<DatagridAG>`](./DatagridAG.md)<img class="icon" src="./img/premium.svg" /> adds suport for column reordering, aggregation, pivoting, row grouping, infinite scroll, etc.

Both are [Enterprise Edition](https://marmelab.com/ra-enterprise) components.

`<Datagrid>` accepts a list of Field components as children. It inspects each child's `source` and/or `label` props to determine the name of the column.

What's a Field component? Simply a component that reads the record (via `useRecordContext`) and renders a value. React-admin includes many Field components that you can use as children of `<Datagrid>` (`<TextField>`, `<NumberField>`, `<DateField>`, `<ReferenceField>`, and many more). Check [the Fields documentation](./Fields.md) for more information.

You can customize the `<Datagrid>` row style (applied to the `<tr>` element) based on the record, thanks to the `rowStyle` prop, which expects a function. React-admin calls this function for each row, passing the current record and index as arguments. The function should return a style object, which react-admin uses as a `<tr style>` prop.

The inspector uses the field `source` (or `label` when it's a string) to display the column name. If you use non-field children (e.g. action buttons), then it's your responsibility to wrap them in a component with a `label` prop, that will be used by the inspector. You can use a [`<WrapperField>`](./WrapperField.md) for that purpose:
