Design data tables with bulk actions by using large row hit areas, clear selected states, and contextual mass-action toolbars. Implement safe select-all behavior to let users manage complex data collections without accidental modifications.

The best way to handle view modes is coordinating grid, list, and table layouts based on user tasks: grids for browsing, lists for reviewing details, and tables for comparing dense data. Persist these view preferences across sessions for consistency.
