Undocumented TableView function

Question

Seeking information on undocumented function TableView. Exempli gratia,

tab=Table[Table[If[Mod[i,Prime[j]]==1,1,0],{i,1,10}],{j,1,2}]
tab//TableView

$ $

{{1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0}, {1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1}}

All that I will say is that it is not finished, its design will change, and will probably crash on you. But it will be super cool if/when its finished. :) — ihojnicki, Mar 29 '18 at 01:04
Just to emphasize what @ihojnicki said: it *will* crash on you if you try to do serious work with it. — b3m2a1, Mar 29 '18 at 01:16
You don't need double Table. 1tab = Table[If[Mod[i, Prime[j]] == 1, 1, 0], {j, 1, 2}, {i, 1, 10}] — OkkesDulgerci, Mar 29 '18 at 01:31
@b3m2a1 For the few doing serious work: This will not crash on you until TableView is finished. :) — gwr, Mar 29 '18 at 08:06
@gwr Nice plug :) Unfortunately it's the editability of TableView that causes such lovely crashes. But that is a good alternative. — b3m2a1, Mar 29 '18 at 08:08
A piece of information: it is around since at least 2009 (MathGroup), and it had many issues throughout the years (for example). — István Zachar, Mar 29 '18 at 08:57
According to the company, it is expected to be released in version 13. — Raymond Wynne, Feb 19 '20 at 00:00
@RaymondWynne Thanks. Please get enough details to make an 'acceptable' answer, if you can, and put this back as an answer, so I can upvote it. — Carl, Feb 19 '20 at 06:30
It will be marked as experimental soon, so it will be in the docs. That doesn't mean it will not crash on you... :) When will it graduate? IDK. — ihojnicki, Feb 21 '20 at 01:00

Finally... TableView arrives in version 12.1:

This is a great start, but deleting entries does not actually delete them when you use the Dynamic expression internally. It's good for adding stuff, though - just don't make a mistake! I may make a bug report for this. – Ghersic Apr 27 '20 at 19:39
I'm using Mathematica 12.0 and the issue of dynamic deleting seems to work fine – JuanC97 Aug 11 '23 at 19:37
