I have no idea how to use this plugin

I figured out how to install it, with the Json and JS files, but have no idea how to actually use it. I tried making some meta data with --- ,but the information on the main page here doesn't really simplify the process. Just talks about WHAT it can do, but not HOW to do it.

Thanks for feedback, to use the plugin you need to (after installing it) define a table (point 2 in Example section in main page), after that you need to define some files in the directory pointed in source section. The files should have frontmatter metadata with keys matching name in fields sections, eg.

motorcycles/r1250rt.md:

---
brand: BMW
model: R1250RT
year: 2022
---

After that the table will show the formatted data :)
