public interface DynamicColumn<C extends DynamicColumn<C>> extends Column<C>

Builder that is used for building ColumnTypes.DYNAMIC type column components.

This type of component is particular useful when you have a column header that may source its value from different sources depending on the row being rendered, e.g. render `variant.name` in one case, but `product.name` in another. 

 Columns.dynamic()
         .when(Conditional.when("type").equalTo("PRODUCT"), column -> column.name("product.name"))
         .when(Conditional.when("type").equalTo("VARIANT"), column -> column.name("variant.name"))
         .build();
