Ask HN: Stack to Put CSV Online
Looking for some recommendations. I can do this with Django but it seems like a lot of baggage for a simple app.
I have a csv with 18 columns and 1600 rows. I would like to put this online so it's searchable, filterable. What's the best stack to do this with? Some JS framework? I don't mind loading the whole thing as text. The page should still load fast as 1600 rows and 18 columns is pretty light.

- nickf 2y agoTry datatables.net - they have a sample 'server' (in PHP, plus more you can find on Github) that allow for dynamic search/filtering.
