Tables are useful interface elements that allow you to visualize data and arrange it in a clear way. Thanks to that, users can browse a lot of information at once and a good table design will help you take care of its clarity.
The basic table design has light padding and the presented data is separated with horizontal dividers. It helps provide users with all the necessary information, without overwhelming them with visuals.
The .table class adds basic styling to a table:

</div>Use the .table-responsive class across each breakpoint for horizontal scrolling tables. If you want to create responsive tables up to a specific breakpoint, use .table-responsive{-sm|-md|-lg|-xl}. From that breakpoint and up, the table will behave normally, rather than scroll horizontally.
