Description

There are information about the file that could be relevant to the user.

Global information
This could be added in a row above the table.

  • Number of rows/columns (not immediately available without scrolling)
  • Size of file

Column level information
This could be added under the column name, or on hover

  • Type of the column data type (string, int, categorical... nullable?)
  • Easily available statistics, for instance for Parquet we may get for free min, max, null count, sometimes distinct count
  • Optionally, we could compute other statistics (more expensive) on demand: mean/media/stddev distribution...

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the table view and how file and column metadata are currently exposed; compare the proposed global row, column annotations or hover details, and optional statistics. Done means the requested metadata is displayed without requiring horizontal scrolling, with expensive statistics treated as on-demand work.
