View columns

You may render a custom view for a cell using the view() method: 
use Filament\Tables\Columns\ViewColumn;

ViewColumn::make('status')->view('filament.tables.columns.status-switcher')
This assumes that you have a resources/views/filament/tables/columns/status-switcher.blade.php file.

​
Custom classes

You may create your own custom column classes and cell views, which you can reuse across your project, and even release as a plugin to the community.
If you’re just creating a simple custom column to use once, you could instead use a view column to render any custom Blade file.
To create a custom column class and view, you may use the following command: 
php artisan make:table-column StatusSwitcher
This will create the following column class: 
use Filament\Tables\Columns\Column;

class StatusSwitcher extends Column
{
    protected string $view = 'filament.tables.columns.status-switcher';
}
It will also create a view file at resources/views/filament/tables/columns/status-switcher.blade.php.

​
Accessing the state

Inside your view, you may retrieve the state of the cell using the $getState() function: 
<div>
    {{ $getState() }}

​
Accessing the Eloquent record

Inside your view, you may access the Eloquent record using the $getRecord() function: 
<div>
    {{ $getRecord()->name }}
