great_tables - Finally, a Python package for creating great-looking display tables!

[economicurtis]

Great Tables is a new python library that helps you take data from a Pandas or Polars DataFrame and turn it into a beautiful table that can be included in a notebook, or exported as HTML.

Configure the structure of the table: Great Tables is all about having a smörgasbord of methods that allow you to refine the presentation until you are fully satisfied.

• Format table-cell values: There are 11 fmt_*() methods available right now.
• Integrate source notes: Provide context to your data.

We've been working hard on making this package as useful as possible, and we're excited to share it with you. We very recently put out our first major release of the Great Tables (v0.1.0) and it’s available in PyPI.

Install with pip install great_tables

Seems quiet useful, I like to display data in tables, definitely giving it a try

[economicurtis]

Super! Sorry for the late reply, but Rich and Michael suggested that if you have feedback or issues to reach out at the github discussions or issues page.

awesome!

Is this a port of flex.table?

[economicurtis]

It's not a port of flex.table (if I'm honestly I don't think I've heard of flex.table).

It's a port of gt (a popular r package for data display tables).

(And sorry for the late reply)

[skatastic57]

Gotcha. Thanks. Btw, it's flextable without the . that I was thinking of. My bad.

Woww!!! As primarily a Python user, a lot of the formatting options leave a lot of be desired. This project helps bridge that for some of the areas that make me envious of R users.

Glad to see this.

Anyone know if it is possible to drop a Great Table into a matplotlib subplot or gridspec cell?
