The “New Table” component can be activated in the settings of the team in the dashboard.
According to Glide’s dev team:
“Just FYI, think of it as an early preview. We still have a few weeks worth of work on this before it’s stable.” (2 days ago)

Yes I’ve given the new table a try, it’s great and looking forward to it becoming more feature rich.
There is still a place for the data grid especially for spreadsheet type and data dense views.

The new Table is really nice. Using it now. However, for the type of apps we are building, there is still a lot to be said for the data grid. We are trying to migrate from AirTable and several of our apps use dense data with the need to group and sort dynamically. (AirTable as Example) Glide is really lacking in this currently. I’ve done a custom work around for dynamic grouping but this still takes a lot of work to put together and is limited to one group.
AirTable grid features we’d love to see come to Glide:
-User can sort by any column and also has secondary sort
-User can group by any column and can group 3 times!
-Expand and collapse data
-Built in Data column calculations (Sum, Avg, etc)
