  • And for some reasons, datagrids use JSON files to store their data, instead of using SQL database as a backend? Do I understand right? Commented Apr 14, 2016 at 20:10

    Datagrids don't store anything. A datagrid is a UI widget. As soon as there's code storing stuff, you've gone outside what a UI widget is. It's entirely possible and in fact common for a datagrid to be used to display stuff that came out of an SQL database, but the code connecting the two is a separate thing from the datagrid and the database. If you're talking about how the grid represents and manipulates the data it's been given in memory at runtime, it certainly won't be in the form of a JSON file, but an actual Javascript object or array is very likely if that's what you meant.
