Using booktabs for a start. There are various other packages for making tables nice but that one gets you a long way. Also study well typeset tables to learn why they look nice.

Can you link to any resources that discuss this?

I don't know any. What I meant was just to find good looking tables yourself and study them with an eye for typesetting. The manuals for LaTeX packages, including booktabs, are often very good too.
