# TableColumn

A column that displays a view for each row in a table.

## Declaration

```swift
nonisolated struct TableColumn<RowValue, Sort, Content, Label> where RowValue : Identifiable, Sort : SortComparator, Content : View, Label : View
```

## Overview

Overview You create a column with a label, content view, and optional key path. The table calls the content content builder with the value for each row in the table. The column uses a key path to map to a property of each row value, which sortable tables use to reflect the current sort order. The following example creates a sortable column for a table with Person rows, displaying each person’s given name: TableColumn("Given name", value: \.givenName) { person in     Text(person.givenName) } For the common case of String properties, you can use the convenience initializer that doesn’t require an explicit content closure and displays that string verbatim as a Text view. This means you can write the previous example as: TableColumn("Given name", value: \.givenName)
