I had this article sitting around for the longest time (like over a year) and just couldn’t get around to finishing it up until someone asked me a question related to it. That’s why it’s in Java and not Kotlin.
This was (still is) intended to be the first of a series of articles on TableView and really covers just the standard stuff you can find in most online tutorials. However, I’ve tried to go a little bit deeper into explaining how and why stuff works than you’ll find in those other tutorials. So, even though it feels to me a bit like, “the article you have to write before you can write the articles about the fun and cool stuff”, I think it’s going to be a better place to start if you aren’t familiar with the basics about TableView.
Future articles are going to talk about creating custom columns, combining data fields into a single column, fancy row stuff and styling aspects.
Anyway, take a look and feel free to tell me what you think.
