How can I combine Jspreadsheet and DataTable in a web application to create a seamless data entry and visualization experience? What would be the steps to allow users to edit data in a spreadsheet-like interface using Jspreadsheet, process that information in the backend, and then display the results in an organized and paginated format with DataTable?

I'm not familiar with Jspreadsheet and don't recall anyone asking this before. Datatables has the Editor extension for editing and saving to the backend. Inline editing allows for spreadsheet like editing. See this example as one of the options available.
I'm not sure how you would use Jspreadsheet together with Datatables. It looks Jspreadsheet wants to control the table. Datatbles certainly wants to control the table. This would introduce conflicts.
See this example of Jspreadsheet emulating Datatables look and feel. You could implement this then create an event handler to save changes to the server.
