DATA TABLE DESIGN PATTERNS
Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter
Data tables allow users to scan, analyze, understand, compare, and act on information easily. When designing them, use monospace typography for numerical values, condensed row height for visibility, sticky headers and fixed columns for consistent labels, and customizable viewing options like 'Columns Showed' dropdowns and horizontal scrollbars for enhanced usability.
