Add a documentation on combining fpdf2 with the ibis library

[Lucas-C]

Provide documentation to users on how to use fpdf2 with ibis library: https://ibis-project.org/

• the section should be added on the page Mixing orther libs
• the documentation would explain how to render ibis dataframes as tables in a PDF document using fpdf2

For reference, we currently have a work-in-progress PR aiming to add adapters for pandas dataframe rendering as tables: #1046

By contributing this documentation page you, as a benevolent FLOSS developper, will provide access to the large community of fpdf2 users to a standard and useful PDF integration with a well-know library.
You will also be added into the contributors list & map.

Hi, can I work on this issue?

[Lucas-C]

@Kaustbh: sure!

Do you know ibis and/or fpdf2 already?

[Kaustbh]

Yes I know fpdf2, I am also working on one issue #1192

[Lucas-C]

Hi @Kaustbh 🙂

Have you been able to start looking at ibis and how to render dataframes using fpdf2?

[Kaustbh]

sorry for the delay, I will start working on this from now itself, do we have the implementation written and now just have to add the documentation?

Hi @Kaustbh
No worries for the delay.

No, there is no "implementation written", the goal of this issue is to figure how to render ibis dataframes in PDF documents using fpdf2, and then to write documentation on how to do so 🙂

Hi @Kaustbh 🙂

Are you still willing to work on this issue, or should it be considered up for grabs?

[Kaustbh]

Hi @Lucas-C I’m not actively working on this issue at the moment, you can mark it as up for grabs so someone else can take it up.
