    The sticky header and footer feature allows you to keep the header and footer of the table visible while scrolling through the table. This is useful when you have a large table and want to keep the header and footer visible at all times.

    Enable Sticky Header

    Enabling the sticky header is as simple as setting the enableStickyHeader prop to true. This will make the header of the table stick to the top and remain visible while scrolling through the table.

    When the sticky header is enabled, you will probably also want to give the table a maxHeight so that the table can scroll vertically and keep the header visible. You can do this by styling the table container with the muiTableContainerProps prop.

    If no maxHeight is specified, the table container will default to a 100vh maxHeight when enableStickyHeader is enabled.

    <MaterialReactTable
      columns={columns}
      data={data}
      enableStickyHeader
      muiTableContainerProps={{ sx: { maxHeight: '500px' } }}
    />

    Similarly, enabling the sticky footer is as simple as setting the enableStickyFooter prop to true. This will make the footer of the table stick to the bottom of the table and always be visible, even before the table is scrolled to the bottom.

    <MaterialReactTable columns={columns} data={data} enableStickyFooter />
