tabular2 – Table typesetting with expl3 syntax
This package offers an experimental solution for table typesetting.
It features a completely new set of input and output interfaces for tables, which diversifies the methods of input and output and enhances readability.
At the code level, it is written using the expl3 syntax, completely eliminating any reliance on traditional low-level table commands.
