That is the name commonly given to all geographical knowledge in the works of Claudius Ptolemy (do not confuse it with Egyptian pharaohs). Claudius Ptolemy was a mathematician, astronomer, geographer, and musical theorist (apparently, it was a thing back then). He lived in Alexandria in the second century A.D. and almost certainly never visited most places found on his maps. Still, his maps and descriptions give a fair representation of distant geography. The proportions were distorted and the distances inaccurate, but Ptolemy died almost 1,800 years before the launch of the first satellite. Let us give him some credit! Even back then maps were tools, not curiosities. When the world&#8217;s largest library contained less data than your smartphone does today, it was obvious how helpful visual representation was. Hence the modern popularity of infographics and diagrams. <a href=\"https:\/\/flatlogic.com\/generator\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/flatlogic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Introducing-professional-vibe-coding.png\" alt=\"Professional Vibe Coding\" class=\"banner-img lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2560px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2560\/640;\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/flatlogic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Introducing-professional-vibe-coding.png 2560w, https:\/\/flatlogic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Introducing-professional-vibe-coding-600x150.png 600w, https:\/\/flatlogic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Introducing-professional-vibe-coding-1024x256.png 1024w, https:\/\/flatlogic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Introducing-professional-vibe-coding-768x192.png 768w, https:\/\/flatlogic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Introducing-professional-vibe-coding-1536x384.png 1536w, https:\/\/flatlogic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Introducing-professional-vibe-coding-2048x512.png 2048w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-original-sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\"> <\/a><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"modern\">Tables in Modern <a href=\"https:\/\/flatlogic.com\/services\/web-development\">Web Development<\/a><\/h2><p>Tables remain the default UI for structured data.

A basic example of a Bootstrap table<\/strong><\/h2><p>Bootstrap tables are well-organized components for displaying data. The data is presented in the form of columns and tables. Bootstrap tables are opt-in. To build it, you just need to add <code>.table<\/code> class to any <code>&lt;table&gt;<\/code> and then style it.<\/p><p>The code example of the basic Bootstrap table looks like this:<\/p><pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>&lt;table class=\"table\"&gt; &lt;thead&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;th scope=\"col\"&gt;#&lt;\/th&gt; &lt;th scope=\"col\"&gt;Name&lt;\/th&gt; &lt;th scope=\"col\"&gt;Surname&lt;\/th&gt; &lt;th scope=\"col\"&gt;Username&lt;\/th&gt; &lt;\/tr&gt; &lt;\/thead&gt; &lt;tbody&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;th scope=\"row\"&gt;1&lt;\/th&gt; &lt;td&gt;Eugene&lt;\/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;Stepnov&lt;\/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;@e93&lt;\/td&gt; &lt;\/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;th scope=\"row\"&gt;2&lt;\/th&gt; &lt;td&gt;Mark&lt;\/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;Dever&lt;\/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;@md111&lt;\/td&gt; &lt;\/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;th scope=\"row\"&gt;3&lt;\/th&gt; &lt;td&gt;John&lt;\/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;Piper&lt;\/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;@piper&lt;\/td&gt; &lt;\/tr&gt; &lt;\/tbody&gt;&lt;\/table&gt;<\/code><\/pre><figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/6QMopK3Dz_1z39QnR9T0xFIyY0g3s9vXmkyN5rXKnoKN85VcgCVyI01fP_U0GVnYjBGaUVfhh0fy6BdXd7g0YxJBVC_84OkuSK0CLBN-zYlMMdQ_qlEvVH9FT123H56z1mMiIvLJ\" alt=\"Hello World! - a basic Bootstrap app example\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bootstrap Table Classes<\/h2><p>The basic principle when developing a bootstrap table is classes. You don&#8217;t need to write cumbersome CSS to style and customize your table. Just add classes to the &lt;table&gt; tag describing how the table will behave. For example, here are the most popular classes:<\/p><p>Border: Add a border with <code>.table bordered<\/code>;<\/p><p>Colors: Add color to different rows with <code>.table striped<\/code>;<\/p><p>Condense: Make your rows more compact with <code>.table-condensed<\/code>;<\/p><p>Hover: Highlight a table sortable line when you hover with <code>.table-hover<\/code>.<\/p><p>Next, we&#8217;ll look at how to put these classes into practice.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best practices for Bootstrap tables in real apps<\/h2><p>Bootstrap makes tables easy to style, but usability comes from a few practical choices:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Prefer &#8220;scan-friendly&#8221; density: use compact spacing for dashboards, but don&#8217;t sacrifice readability.<\/li><li>Keep headers sticky if the table scrolls vertically (users hate losing context).<\/li><li>Use right alignment for numbers and consistent formatting (currency, dates, statuses).<\/li><li>Avoid pure color-only meaning (e.g., red\/green rows) &#8211; combine with labels or icons.<\/li><li>For mobile: don&#8217;t force tiny columns &#8211; use horizontal scroll or switch to a card layout.<\/li><\/ul><p>If you&#8217;re building business software, table usability affects productivity directly &#8211; bad tables create more support tickets than you expect.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Types of bootstrap table<\/strong><\/h2><p>Now let&#8217;s take a look at different basic manipulations with Bootstrap table.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Striped rows and dark table<\/strong><\/h3><p>For creating a striped row table you just need to add <code>.table-striped<\/code> to any table row within the <code>&lt;tbody&gt;<\/code>.
