# TableCell extension

Use the Table Cell extension in Tiptap to add cells to your tables for proper data structure. Learn more in our docs!

Don’t try to use tables without table cells. It won’t be fun.

> **Interactive demo:** [Table](https://embed.tiptap.dev/preview/Nodes/Table)

## Install

```bash
npm install @tiptap/extension-table
```

This extension requires the [`Table`](https://tiptap.dev/docs/editor/extensions/nodes/table.md) extension to be installed.

This extension is installed by default with the `TableKit` extension, so you don’t need to install it separately.

```ts
import { Editor } from '@tiptap/core'
import { TableKit } from '@tiptap/extension-table'

new Editor({
  extensions: [TableKit],
})
```

## Source code

[packages/extension-table-cell/](https://github.com/ueberdosis/tiptap/blob/main/packages/extension-table/src/cell)

## Minimal Install

```js
import { Editor } from '@tiptap/core'
import { TableCell } from '@tiptap/extension-table/cell'

new Editor({
  extensions: [TableCell],
})
```
