Table: HextaUI and shadcn/ui

The HextaUI Table keeps the shadcn/ui names and theme tokens and installs with the same CLI. This page lists what differs, read from the source of both. The shadcn/ui side is its base-vega registry as of 2026-10-16.

More source is not better on its own. Most of the extra lines in HextaUI handle states, motion and edge cases that you would otherwise write yourself.

Props HextaUI adds

Props the HextaUI wrapper handles itself that the shadcn/ui wrapper does not. Props passed straight through to Base UI or the underlying library are left out, because both versions accept them.

Prop	What it does
`wrap`Table	Let cell text wrap and align rows to the top.
`scrollFade`Table	Fade the edges that have more content to scroll to. Skipped when columns are pinned.
`stickyHeader`Table	Keep the header in view. Give the container a max height through containerClassName.
`containerClassName`Table	Classes for the scroll container.
`containerRef`Table	Ref to the scroll container.
`align`TableHead	end also switches to tabular numbers so digits line up.
`pinned`TableHead	Keep the column in view while the table scrolls sideways. Set the same value on its header and every cell.
`pinnedEdge`TableHead	Draw a soft shadow on the inner edge of the last pinned column while content is hidden behind it.
`align`TableCell	end also switches to tabular numbers so digits line up.
`pinned`TableCell	Keep the column in view while the table scrolls sideways. Set the same value on its header and every cell.
`pinnedEdge`TableCell	Draw a soft shadow on the inner edge of the last pinned column while content is hidden behind it.

Every state, the keyboard map and the API reference are on the component page.

7 of its examples also have a page of their own.

Switch one component

Run the add command with --overwrite to replace the shadcn/ui file in @/components/ui, then review the diff in git before you keep it. Imports stay the same, and components you don’t replace keep working.

pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add https://hextaui.com/r/table.json --overwrite

Every prop in the table above is an addition, so call sites written for shadcn/ui don’t pass it yet.
Check any part or variant listed only for shadcn/ui before you switch, and map it to the closest HextaUI one.
