User interface technology for displaying table data

A computer system, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more computer-readable media having stored thereon computer-executable instructions that are executable by the one or more processors to configure the computer system to generate a user interface for visualizing at least a portion of a table data structure, the computer-executable instructions including instructions that are executable to configure the computer system to perform at least the following:
• access a table data structure comprising a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns;
• identify a particular column of the plurality of columns that is to be used for sorting each of the plurality of rows into a different one of a plurality of different regions of the user interface;
• identify one or more region characteristics corresponding to each of the plurality of different regions, the one or more region characteristics being usable for matching which of the plurality of rows are to be visualized within their corresponding region;
• associate each of the plurality of different regions with a different subset of the plurality of rows that are to be visualized within the region, each subset comprising two or more rows that each has a value that matches the one or more region characteristics of the associated region at an intersection between the particular column and the row in the table data structure;
• and
• display a visual representation of each of the plurality of rows within the user interface, including visually arranging each visual representation into a corresponding one of the plurality of different regions of the user interface, each visual representation being arranged within the region the row associated with the visual representation belongs.
