Description

Hi, can you please add support for vertical headers(having the headers bar on the left side of the table)? You can read more of how to implement it here: Vertical heading in html table: https://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_table_headers

Bootstrap: https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/476

Thank you very much :)

Research direction
Investigate the component's header rendering logic in the repository, likely in a file like src/header.js or similar. Review the linked Bootstrap issue for implementation patterns. Check existing comments for any maintainer guidance or objections. The goal is to add an optional prop that renders headers vertically on the left side of the table.
