Legacy v2 Download

Below is a set of options which you can use to select DataTables options and components to build a CDN link for the legacy DataTables v2 compatible software. This is similar to the main download builder, which provides the latest versions of all of the DataTables software, but is limited to producing a CDN string only at this time. For npm and other options, you would need to append the version to your added dependencies.

For legacy Editor builds, please see the Editor releases page. The latest version of Editor that is compatible with DataTables 2.x is Editor 2.5.1.

IMPORTANT: THIS IS FOR LEGACY BUILDS ONLY. Use the main download builder for the latest versions of DataTables and its extensions.
