v11.0.0-beta.0

11.0.0-beta.0 (2026-10-27)

First v11.0 Beta Release (expect the official release on the week of November 9th), provide any feedback before that date.

Main v11 Changes

• drop SortableJS (use native drag & drop)
• rewrite freezing as Pinning (much more flexible than before)
  • almost 2 months of work with 2 different AIs (ChatGPT Sol/Astra, Claude Opus/Fable)
• new Sticky rows/columns feature
• better perf all around
• ... and a lot more, see v11 Migration Guides

This release is so big that I decided to postponed a few things for v12 (mainly CSS anchor positioning)

Platform	Migration	Requirements	Live Demos
Angular-Slickgrid	Migration Guide v11.0	now requires: Angular 22+ / ngx-translate v18	Pinning / new Sticky
Aurelia-Slickgrid	Migration Guide v11.0	now requires: Aurelia 2 RC.2+	Pinning / new Sticky
Slickgrid-React	Migration Guide v11.0	still requires: React 19+	Pinning / new Sticky
Slickgrid-Vue	Migration Guide v11.0	still requires: Vue 3.5+	Pinning / new Sticky
Native / Vanilla	Migration Guide v11.0		Pinning / new Sticky

Make sure to follow the Migration Guide for each framework or native JS (aka vanilla).

Cheers and thanks for using the lib 🚀 ⭐
