What is the best way to implement saving the table and the ability to edit it through the front?

Question

HTML

There are many tables with product characteristics that need to be updated periodically. What is the best way to store these tables (it is necessary in files, not in the database) - json or csv, what is the best way to edit them? Is there a jquery plugin for this?

Answer 1

Depending on how you are going to edit.
For example, Excel (Google Spreadsheet I think too) supports the csv format - it's easy to edit with the help of software.
It is also quite easy to parse csv in any language.
Judging by the mention of jQuery, we are talking about some kind of display of table data in the browser. So the task is very trivial - parse csv - display - edit if necessary - pack back to csv - send to the server - save as a file.
