License

This wrapper is released under the MIT license but under the hood it uses Handsontable, which is dual-licensed. You can either use it for free in all your non-commercial projects or purchase a commercial license.

License key

The license key is obligatory since Handsontable 7.0.0 (released in March 2019).

If you use Handsontable for purposes not intended toward monetary compensation such as, but not limited to, teaching, academic research, evaluation, testing and experimentation, pass a phrase 'non-commercial-and-evaluation', as presented below.

You can pass it in the settings object:

1settings: {
2  data: data,
3  rowHeaders: true,
4  colHeaders: true,
5  licenseKey: 'non-commercial-and-evaluation'
6}

Alternatively, you can pass it to a licenseKey prop:

1<HotTable settings={settings} licenseKey="00000-00000-00000-00000-00000" />

If, on the other hand, you use Handsontable in a project that supports your commercial activity, then you must purchase the license key at handsontable.com.

The license key is validated in an offline mode. No connection is made to any server. Learn more about how it works.
