# Data Display and Selection

Complex data collections — products, files, users, orders, tasks — have no single correct view. Different tasks call for different views. Browsing benefits from grid; comparing details benefits from list or table; bulk management benefits from a dense table with mass actions. Give users the choice.

---

## View Modes

Offer multiple views when the data has both visual and detailed dimensions.

| View | Best for | When to default |
|---|---|---|
| **Grid** | Visual items: products, images, files, cards | When items are visually distinct and browsing is the primary task |
| **List** | Moderate detail: tasks, emails, articles | When a key piece of text or metadata drives selection |
