Great Tables is a Python library for building beautiful, publication-quality display tables from Pandas or Polars DataFrames using a chainable API. It supports headers, footers, stubs, spanner labels, value formatting, styling, and export to HTML, LaTeX, or images.
Use cases
- make publication-quality summary tables from a pandas dataframe
- format and style a polars dataframe for a report
- add headers, footers, and source notes to a display table
- render a styled table as HTML for a web page or notebook
- export a formatted table to an image or LaTeX
- create presentation-ready tables for journal articles
When to choose
- you need polished, human-readable display tables rather than raw dataframes
- you work in Python with pandas or polars and want a gt-style table API
- you want to embed styled tables in notebooks, Quarto, or HTML reports
When to avoid
- you need tables that will be read back as data rather than displayed
- you need interactive, sortable data grids in a web app
- you are not working in Python
