In this episode of #UI5erslive, we focus once again on the #UI5ResponsiveTable control. In addition to Sebastian Bender, we have Jay Barbhaiya from the #UI5 Tables team with us. Jay shows the new #UI5ColumnResizer plug-in plus the auto pop-in feature for responsive tables. We also address the open questions about #UI5SpreadsheetExport we got from you last time. We hope you tune in!
