Never used Tabler itself, but I am an absolute loyalist for using their icons, which are all MIT licensed and available in SVG. https://github.com/tabler/tabler-icons
Wow, this is really great! I love the design and especially the sophistication of that demo page. Really powerful and professional looking stuff.
it looks like tabler uses jekyll underneath for docs and demo (which i personally like and am comfortable with). the demo is really nice, ahd while i'm not big on js any more, the js driving tabler looks fairly straightforward and appropriate to my eyes. the underlying html and css, however, give me pause about how easy it would be to integrate into a larger project. soup is how i'd describe the demo html, and its cs…
From what I understand, it should also work ok with more semantic html elements. But it would be nice to see maybe a little of that in the examples.
then again, you'd probably not have to care about semantic structure in dashboards anyways, as it's unlikely SEO is a concern.
Might be worth considering for accessibility though.

nice, i may have to look into using these for my personal css framework project. i'm still not sold on svg as an unalloyed good over font icons (as they're really verbose and cluttery in markup), but they do have some good points as well (e.g., multi-color and css-able).
I hate this modern design trend of wasting as much of my screen real estate as possible. It's ugly and it wastes my time, which is rude. Every one of these tables is literally 300% taller than it needs to be. Get rid of all the pointless padding and spaces. You can pack 3x the information on screen. This looks "modern" but it doesn't look good and it certainly isn't useful . Every time I bring this up in UX review de…
A lot of things that desktop applications did are missing in most web apps; high information density, resizable panels, panel layouts (side by side etc...), keyboard shortcuts, embedded CLI's, and so on. It makes the user experience a lot worse for power users.

There are designers that appreciate the distinction between the way you design a desktop application vs a consumer website / mobile app. A lot of the design literature and discussion seems to be focused on the latter these days.

Looks fine to me. The page is already pretty information dense, making it even more dense isn't necessarily better, but it's all pretty subjective.

I’m talking about the whitespace within a row. There’s no reason to make a row in the table 3x taller than the text on the row. If you think 8 rows is all your users need that’s fine, but why waste all that space?
Can be partially solved by having alternating colour rows (and frankly it should've been a thing here), but ultimately this is far easier to read then your average excel sheet, at least to me.
And frankly if you're displaying more than 8 rows, you need to add a damn scrollbar and search box, ain't nobody reading all of that. Humans can generally only focus on like 5 things at a time max anyway.
