Angular PrimeNG is an open-source framework with a rich set of native Angular UI components that are used for great styling and this framework is used to make responsive websites with very much ease. This article will show us how to use Table Basic in Angular PrimeNG.

Angular PrimeNG Basic Table is used to make a simple Table component. A Table component is responsive and looks attractive for representing data in tabular format.

Syntax:

<p-table 
    [value]="...">
    <ng-template pTemplate="header">
        ...
     </ng-template>
     <ng-template pTemplate="body" let-people>
        ...
     </ng-template>
</p-table>

ng new appname

Step 2:  After creating your project folder i.e. appname, move to it using the following command.

cd appname

Step 3: Install PrimeNG in your given directory.

npm install primeng --save
npm install primeicons --save
