I had the idea to add distributions to my volleyball summary tables today. Thanks to @richmeister.bsky.social's gt, @mjskay.com's ggdist, and @themockup.blog's gtExtras packages! Took awhile but got there eventually!

Hey! We've released Great Tables `v0.16.0` and it's got a cool new feature for applying conditional styling to rows on a per-column basis! The new `mask=` argument in `loc.body()` gives you that freedom to style a table based on a Polars DataFrame. Blog post at:
