Claim: a reproducible Python library called great tables (GT) actually produces publication‑quality tables from Polars or pandas and exports HTML and image formats (PNG, PDF, TIFF). The demo shows concrete APIs — tab_header, tab_spanner, format_number, format_percent, format_image, nanoplot/sparkline and data_color — and a real bug (a percentage column summing to 102%) is admitted. The library builds styled tables, image/sparkline cells, heatmaps, and HTML with partial accessibility and email/Outlook quirks; interactive pagination is planned.
