Now that I’m comfortable with displaying the results of simulations using GLMakie I would like to create a gui that allows me to view numerical data directly rather than graphically. I have been using the terminal and creating excel sheets but that’s too cumbersome to display a lost of data. Often I just want to see a simple table of numbers and watch them change as calculations progress. Simply interactivity would be good but not critical and I would like to be able to control text attributes like colour to highlight some numbers.

What’s the best way for a non computer scientist to explore this area?

Thanks  
Steve

Maybe [Home · Term.jl](https://fedeclaudi.github.io/Term.jl/dev/) ? Not a GUI but it lives directly in the terminal

[https://ronisbr.github.io/PrettyTables.jl/stable/](https://ronisbr.github.io/PrettyTables.jl/stable/)  
could also be useful for displaying pretty tables of numbers
