As a game developer, it would be useful to be able to use a hugo shortcode to get a rollable table instead of a static one.

It should be possible to generate roll tables from several different data sources, both local and remote:

YAML and JSON data files
CSV files
Google Sheets
Inline markdown tables

For local sources, the table should generate at build time and live on the page as static HTML.

For remote sources, users should have the option to:

Generate at build time from current data.
Generate at load time from current data.
Generate at build time with an option to check remote file for updates, rebuilding if needed and falling back on build-time-generated data if not.
Include an explicit option to sync the data with remote values. Possibly, this should be cached for the user to support future offline usage.
