First time when you interact with Attributes CRUD in VaahStore, it will appear like this: at the top, you'll find Attributes name, along with options such as a Create button for adding new Attribute entity, a Reload button for retrieving the entire list of data, and a dropdown button for creating multiple entries with a single click. And a left-side you can access all other crud like store, vendor etc.

At the top, you'll find two toggle menus, each offering distinct features. The first menu allows you to perform specific actions on individual data entries, such as activation, deactivation, deletion, and trashing.

The other menu provides bulk actions, enabling you to perform actions on multiple data entries at once, such as deleting all data or activating all data.

Further options include a filter button and a filter reset button for data filtering.

At the bottom, you'll find a table with column names, and there's also a pagination section. You have the option to customize the pagination according to your preference.
