Angular PrimeNG Table Size

Last Updated : 26 Apr, 2025

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. In this article, we will see how to use Table Size in Angular PrimeNG.

Angular PrimeNG Table Size adds the size of the table row. Class values used for a table can be p-datatable-sm, p-datatable-md, p-datatable-lg.

Syntax:

<p-table [value]="..."
         styleClass="p-datatable-sm or 
                       p-datatable-md or 
                       p-datatable-lg">
</p-table>

Creating Angular application & Module Installation:

Step 1: Create an Angular application using the following command.

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

Project Structure: It will look like the following:

Example 1: Below is a simple example demonstrating the use of the Angular PrimeNG Table Size, where we are making a small-sized table.
