How to plot subplots with ff.create_table() in plotly?

Answer 1

I'd recommend using https://plotly.com/python/table/ and https://plotly.com/python/subplots/

Using sample data:

import seaborn as sns
import plotly.figure_factory as ff
import plotly.graph_objects as go
from plotly.subplots import make_subplots

sample = sns.load_dataset("tips")

fig = make_subplots(
    rows=1,
    cols=2,
    specs=[[{"type": "table"} for _ in range(2)]],
)

fig.add_trace(
    go.Table(
        cells={"values": sample.head().values.T}, header={"values": sample.columns}
    ),
    row=1,
    col=1,
)
fig.add_trace(
    go.Table(
        cells={"values": sample.tail().values.T}, header={"values": sample.columns}
    ),
    row=1,
    col=2,
)
