Summary  
This chapter covers how to implement conditional formatting and dynamic content by using cell rendering functions that apply styles or insert content (such as colors or icons) based on each cell’s data.  

General domain of usage  
Interactive data tables in web applications

When building interactive tables with Grid.js, you often need to highlight important information or provide visual cues based on the data in each cell. This is where **conditional formatting** and **dynamic content** come into play. Conditional logic enables you to change the appearance or content of a cell according to its value. For instance:

- Display high sales numbers in green;
- Show low scores in red;
- Display an icon when a status is `"active"`.

Using Grid.js's **cell rendering** capabilities, you can write functions that check each cell's data and apply specific styles or content accordingly. This approach helps users quickly interpret the data and draws attention to key values right inside the table.
