Very simple but very useful.

Idea: Make something like http://yourapp.tld/CSV_URL to view table using any csv link.

Thats a great idea, will try that.

I would show all entries, and not give any option to show just 10,20, 50... there is no advantage in that since everything is in memory

Yeah, will give a command line flag to set default number of entries.

Interesting project. One thing is they don't have search filter which is really useful when working with large data set.

This is Awesome!, thanks for sharing it!. Unfortunately I can't make it work with any of my csv's,

UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8'

Please try upgrading to v1.1.0 and check. If you don't mind you can share the sample CSV data for testing.

I will open a issue on github and put the csv

Just import the CSV into Google Sheets. Done.

Could you add supporting for json, xml, excel, etc.

Yeah will do that in upcoming versions.

Useful script. Have uploaded it to SparrowHub - https://sparrowhub.org/info/csvtotable
