We released a new version of AG Grid at the start of February. The [release blog post for this is here](https://blog.ag-grid.com/whats-new-in-ag-grid-27/) and since this is a major release it is worth checking the [release notes for deprecations](https://www.ag-grid.com/changelog/?fixVersion=27.0.0).

Some key points:

- The 100% React Rendering Engine is now the default for React applications.
- Simplified Framework Component registrations.
- JavaScript Documentation examples all now have a TypeScript version.

## Useful Stuff

- [Egghead.io](https://egghead.io/) have released Kent C. Dodds [Beginners Guide to React](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_x4AuqHxlg) as a free course to YouTube.

## Videos About AG Grid

- [How to Recreate and Extend AG-Grid Filtering with Custom Filter Component](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKLBMdmKy4g) This Youtube video from [Riley Waugh](https://www.linkedin.com/in/rileywaugh/) shows custom filters with [source released to Github](https://github.com/GIimmer/AggridCustomFilter).
- [Devops Mit Philip continues his video series](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_geCLUJGJc&t=33s) of Mongo DB Atlas with AG Grid. The videos are in German, but I've found them very watchable by switching on captions and then setting YouTube to auto translate the captions into English.


## Streamlit

AG Grid is being used in more Python Streamlit applications due to the easy to use [AG Grid Wrapper](https://towardsdatascience.com/7-reasons-why-you-should-use-the-streamlit-aggrid-component-2d9a2b6e32f0).

There were a couple of case studies released showing applications employing the AG Grid component:
