One way to show a condensed representation of information generated by a typescript function in the form of a table during a workshop is to use a tool or library that allows for easy table creation and rendering.

One such tool is the Tabulator library, which is a lightweight and easy-to-use library that presents data in a variety of formats, including a table. To use Tabulator, you would first need to import the library into your project and then create a new instance of the Tabulator object. You would then pass in the data generated by your typescript function to the table constructor and specify the table options.

Here is an example code snippet that demonstrates how to use Tabulator to create a table:

// Import the Tabulator library
import Tabulator from 'tabulator-tables';

// Create an instance of the Tabulator object
const table = new Tabulator('#my-table', {
  data: [], // initialize with empty data set
  columns: [ // define table columns
    { title: 'Name', field: 'name' },
    { title: 'Age', field: 'age', align: 'right' },
    { title: 'Email', field: 'email' },
  ],
});

// Get data generated by typescript function
const data = myTypescriptFunction();

// Update table data
table.setData(data);

In this example, the #my-table selector refers to an HTML element where the table should be rendered. The columns property defines the columns that should be displayed in the table. The setData method updates the data in the table with the output of the typescript function.

Overall, using a tool or library like Tabulator can help simplify the process of creating and displaying a condensed representation of data generated by a typescript function in the form of a table during a workshop.
