 /**
  * The `picsa-data-table` component is a lightweight wrapper around `mat-table`, used
  * to simplify display of basic tables.
- *
- * By default the table has support for sort, pagination and data search (filter)
+ * @example
+ * ```
+ * <picsa-data-table [data]="myData"></picsa-data-table>
+ * ```
+ * The table has support for sort, pagination and data search (filter),
+ * enabled by default and configurable by an options input @see IDataTableOptions
+ * @example
+ * ```
+ * <picsa-data-table [data]="myData" [options]="{search:false}"></picsa-data-table>
+ * ```
+ * The table will display all cell values directly, without any additional formatting
+ * If needing to render values within a custom template this can be done via `valueTemplates`
+ * @example
+ * ```
+ * <picsa-data-table [data]="myData" [valueTemplates]={col1:col1Template}>
+ *  <ng-template #col1Template let-value>
+ *    <span class='some-custom-class'>{{value | modifierPipe}}</span>
+ *  </ng-template>
+ * </picsa-data-table>
+ * ```
  *
  * For more advanced use cases such as custom column display prefer to directly use `mat-table`
