What it means
Theming changes how the grid looks without changing what the data means. Use it for product tokens, icons, and a few scoped visual overrides.
Foundation guide
Theming data grid documentation
Theming lets you match Ace Grid to your product UI without rewriting the grid internals. Use it for tokens, icons, and targeted style overrides.
When to use it
Use it when the grid should feel native to your design system instead of like a third-party embed. Reach for theme tokens first, then use targeted style overrides only for the few selectors tokens cannot cover.
Implementation notes
Keep visual identity in the theme layer. Avoid pushing product styling into data, column, or interaction props. Use inline selector overrides sparingly. They are best for surgical polish, not a second theming system.
Relevant API
Start with theming.theme, theming.icons, theming.inlineStyleOverrides. Open the live API reference for types and defaults.
