Julia package for browsing tables that that implement the [Tables.jl](https://github.com/JuliaData/Tables.jl) interface, as HTML.

## Installation

The package is registered, install with

```julia

pkg> add BrowseTables

```

## Usage

```julia

using BrowseTables, Tables

# make example table, but any table that supports Tables.jl will work

table = Tables.columntable(collect(i == 5 ? (a = missing, b = "string", c = nothing) :

                                   (a = i, b = Float64(i), c = 'a'-1+i) for i in 1:10))

open_html_table(table) # open in browser

HTMLTable(table) # show HTML table using Julia's display system

```

The package exports four symbols:

1. `write_html_table` writes a table to a HTML file,

2. `open_html_table` writes the table and opens it in a browser using [DefaultApplication.jl](https://github.com/tpapp/DefaultApplication.jl),

3. `TableOptions` can be used to customize table appearance and HTML options for the above two functions.

4. `HTMLTable` displays an HTML table using Julia's display system.  It needs a display supporting HTML output (e.g., [IJulia.jl](https://github.com/JuliaLang/IJulia.jl)).

Please read the docstrings for further information. That said, the primary design principle of this package is that it should “just work”, without further tweaking.

## How it looks

The above table renders as
