cool project!

Visualizing tabular data often presented some challenges, as I had to rely on tools like Google Sheets or Colab + Pandas for quick cleaning and wrangling before exploring different visualizations.

I think having more client-side data cleaning capabilities would make it even more powerful

Yes I had the same experience for analytics work some years ago. As others have pointed out, Visprex only works in a happy path where data is a clean CSV file so will definitely need to work on data cleaning. I have a DuckDB integration planned but not sure if this is easy enough for the target audience. Will try to add some predefinied functionalities, thanks for the feedback!
