Introducing DataKit, now live on GitHub!

·

We’re thrilled to announce that DataKit is now available to the world! DataKit offers a powerful way for developers to build dynamic data tables, grids, and lists in just minutes.


Build dynamic data tables, grids, and lists in minutes

Quickly create interactive tables that support a broad variety of field types. Want to make a table of people who submitted entries to your form? Create a DataView. Want to display their profile photo? Add a Gravatar field.

For WordPress developers, DataKit is delightfully easy to use and get started with.

Supports multiple sources of data (and many more coming!)

DataKit removes the work from creating a powerful, dynamic table with filtering, sorting, and search. Currently, DataKit has support for the following data sources:

  • Gravity Forms
  • WS Form
  • WordPress Users
  • Uploaded CSVs in WordPress

Follow our straightforward developer docs and you’ll have a DataView-powered table in minutes, not hours.

Why DataKit?

With so many options to choose from when creating tables in WordPress, why choose DataKit?

  1. It’s free.
  2. It’s powerful. Search, sorting, and filtering all baked-in.
  3. It’s simple. Our beautiful, fluent PHP API makes developing easy.
  4. It’s not just tables. DataViews is a flexible renderer, allowing tables, lists, grids, and more to be created using the same library.
  5. DataKit is built on DataViews, the foundation for WordPress’ new admin design.
  6. Built by the team behind GravityKit. We know how to build quality software that lasts.
  7. New features are being added to DataViews all the time, and DataKit will inherit them.

Okay, so you want to start building?

A beautiful interface

We’re working on a gorgeous, WordPress-native drag-and-drop user interface to make DataKit accessible to everyone, not just developers.
