Description

Right now I made public 40+ tables and views for a database.
When I access "Our data" - my database - it's very hard to find the table that I need.

Would it be possible to create some categories (for example department name like production, finance, process etc) and include the tables in that area?
Maybe also a dropdown box to filter the "departments"...

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. First locate the “Our data” database navigation and review how tables and views are listed; done means the category model and filtering behavior are defined, implemented, and verified.
