Solid indeed does not have the same number of options that React has when it comes to UI component libraries. I've only used Solid on small throwaway projects, but I do like it better than React.

However, like you've pointed out, there's going to be things that you have to do yourself that in React you could likely depend on someone else for.

For tables though, I haven't used this in Solid, but it's pretty nice in general https://tanstack.com/table/latest

When I researched Tanstack, it looked flexible. But a recurring theme with users was that some options are not compatible with each other, while the documentation is silent about what functionalities are compatible with each other. Did you experience that?

For me such a thing is a red flag: incomplete documentation, feature gaps and unpredictability. Also, how difficult is it too fill the feature gap. Even if one succeeds, how maintainable would it be if changes are not accepted upstream.
