Tables
You can now turn any node into a lightweight Table, giving you a more structured way to organize plans, trackers, comparisons, and small databases.
A Table is still a list underneath. A node’s children become rows, and each row’s children become cells. Workflowy also adds a header row with blank cells so you can name your columns and give your notes more structure. You can turn a Table back into a list at any time.
You can drag and drop to reorganize rows and columns, move cells, or replace one cell with another. You can also sort, duplicate, and use different node types, such as To-dos, inside headers and cells, so your tables can become working plans, checklists, trackers, or drafts.
You can paste content from Excel, Google Sheets, Markdown, or TSV (tab-separated values) into a Workflowy Table and when you want to share or work with other apps, export to HTML, Markdown, or TSV.
To try it, choose “Table” from the “Turn into” option in the node menu, or type /table.

Genial.
I am SO GRATEFUL for this app! I don’t know how you keep on coming up with ways to make it better, but you continually DO! Workflowy is my Command Central for everything in my life – and I absolutely LOVE how it intuitively “thinks” the way I do – linearly. But I also LOVE that it tolerates and supports “multi-branch” thinking, which I do with your amazing Mirrors feature, which is the most fantastic thing ever invented! i’m sorry – I can’t control my hyperbole when it comes to Workflow – It’s just SO DAMN SMART!!! Thank you, THANK YOU!!
