Out of the box, the data-table is not styled. This gives you maximum flexibility.

There is a separate material theme distributed with data-table. In order to use it, you need to include that in your application themes/material.css and add the CSS class material to your data-table.

This is a simple way to apply the style of the demo.

@import '~@swimlane/ngx-datatable/index.css';
@import '~@swimlane/ngx-datatable/themes/material.scss';
@import '~@swimlane/ngx-datatable/assets/icons.css';

You can just add above to your scss file and then specify the class of your ngx-datatable to <ngx-datatable class="material">
