Nested Data Structures
Oftentimes your dataset will consist of objects, rather than primitive types.
By default, the package has no knowledge of how those objects should be presented.
To tell the package how to handle those fields you can use one of two options, depending on your needs:
1. Decide which primitive property you would like to refer to as the relevant piece of data, by using the dot notation when declaring your `columns` prop. E.g: ['name','age','meta.education.degree']
2. Use Templates
Option 1 is more simple and straight-forward. However, it disregards all the other properties, which means that sorting, filtering and presentation will all refer to the single piece of primitive data at the "end of the chain".
If you want to use the entire object, option 2 is your best route. This will allow you to incorporate all the properties in the presentation.
