    "rows": [
        [1, "Tom", "Value 1"],
        [2, "Jerry", "Value 2"]
    ]
});  

┌───┬───────┬─────────┐
│   │ Name  │ Value   │
├───┼───────┼─────────┤
│ 1 │ Tom   │ Value 1 │
│ 2 │ Jerry │ Value 2 │
└───┴───────┴─────────┘  

Without header:

const CG = require("console-grid");
CG({
    "options": {
        "headerVisible": false
    },
    "columns": ["", "Name", "Value"],
    "rows": [
        [1, "Tom", "Value 1"],
        [2, "Jerry", "Value 2"]

});  

┌───┬───────┬─────────┐
│ 1 │ Tom   │ Value 1 │
│ 2 │ Jerry │ Value 2 │
└───┴───────┴─────────┘  

With column minWidth and maxWidth (Multiple Line Header):

const CG = require("console-grid");
CG({
    "columns": ["", {

    }, {
        "name": "Value",
        "maxWidth": 20
