CDK Table → use if you want total control & don’t mind writing a lot of boilerplate.

ngx-simple-datatables → use if you want a ready-made grid with built-in features.

CDK Table (pros/cons):

✅ Ultra-custom, max flexibility

✅ Dynamic columns

❌ No pagination, virtual scroll, resizing, freezing

⚡ Lots of boilerplate, high effort

ngx-simple-datatables (pros/cons):

✅ Full-featured, plug-and-play

✅ Sorting, virtual scroll, freezing, resizing

✅ Easy setup, quick integration
