Looks promising but not "production" ready...?
Just stumbled upon this plugin since I am looking for a lightweight table implementation and since this one builds upon DataTables and wraps everthing in a Gutenberg block I was quite intreagued... The code doesn't seem to be ready for production though, inspecting the main data-tables.php yields code fragements such as directors_name and references to a MOVIE CUSTOM TYPE POST? Please clean up the code 😉 Looking forward!

Really, REALLY GOOD !!!
All I needed was 10 minutes to realize what a good plugin this is, it even has a Gutenberg block so I can also build the tables right in a page/post. The sorting, searching, and pagination is what really sold me here. My go to tool to display tables for now on, that's for sure. Nick.
