A canvas-powered, React-friendly datagrid component

Note: This library is still considered beta, because it currently has few consumers. Feel free to give it a try and report any issues!

There are already lots of excellent grid / table components that can be used with React, so why another one? Well, react-canvas-grid's particular goals are:

• First-class support for complex data objects - rather than assuming every cell's value is a simple scalar
• High performance handling of all major operations (data editing, scrolling, selecting, etc) even with large grids - no visible redaws, lag, or hanging the main thead
• Range selection (although only a single range at a time), including the possibility to bulk update the selected area of the grid
• Arbitrary numbers of frozen rows / columns
• Support for column reordering / filtering (even if that's largely handled externally to the component)
• Column reordering by dragging (i.e. internally to the component)
• Focus/scroll to a column (for use with an external 'search' function)

There was also originally a goal of making use of browser-native scrolling, although that ultimately wasn't quite tennable. 🤷‍♂️

• Middle-click "auto-scrolling"
• Column dragging (callback to with suggested reordering of ColumnDefs, up to parent to actually re-order & re-render)
