Michael Chow @mchow.com · 13/03/2026New Great Tables post: recreating SEPTA timetables in Python! I'm a big fan of how transit networks display timetables, so @richmeister.bsky.social and I reproduced one by SEPTA! It was a quick experiment, and still a bit rough, but fun to try w/ Great Tables. posit-dev.github.io/great-tables... 092

Michael Chow @mchow.com · 17/04/2025New post! Great Tables: Becoming the Polars .style property When you use Polars `DataFrame.style` it returns a Great Tables object.
