ag-grid-react does not render properly

Following the sample from the docs: https://www.ag-grid.com/best-react-data-grid/index.php

After creating new react app (have tried several times on different machines)

create-react-app whatever

If I apply the stylesheets (ag-grid.css & theme-fresh.css) all that is rendered is a gray line across the page. Any other combination renders a blank page. Removing ag-grid.css renders the grid but its jumbled all over the place.

Has anyone used this lately successfully with React? Does anyone recommend something different? (requirements: paging, sorting, filtering, selectable row(s))

thanks :-)

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import {AgGridReact} from 'ag-grid-react';
import '../node_modules/ag-grid/dist/styles/ag-grid.css';
import '../node_modules/ag-grid/dist/styles/theme-fresh.css';

class App extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = {
      columnDefs: [
        {headerName: 'First Name', field: 'name' },
        {headerName: 'Last Name', field: 'lname'  }
      ],
      rowData: [
        { name: 'Dave', lname: 'Smith' },
        { name: 'Tommy', lname: 'Smith' },
        { name: 'Lea', lname: 'Jones' }
      ]
    }
  }
  render() {
    return (
      <div className="ag-fresh">
        <AgGridReact
            columnDefs={this.state.columnDefs}
            rowData={this.state.rowData}
          rowSelection="multiple"
          enableColResize="true"
          enableSorting="true"
          enableFilter="true"
          groupHeaders="true"
          rowHeight="22"
          debug="true"
        />
      </div>
    );
  }
}

export default App;

The outer grid required a height :-(

The documentation does not show this. Not sure why there is no min default height for the grid, but there is not.

So essentially you need something like this, where the grid is wrapped with an element which has a height:

<div className="ag-fresh">
  <div className="grid_height_fix">
  <AgGridReact columnDefs={this.state.columnDefs} rowData={this.state.data.gridDate} >
  </AgGridReact>
  </div>
</div>
.grid_height_fix {height:800px;}
