So far the best results I am able to get are with the https://github.com/backdrop-contrib/footable module that has been back ported from Drupal 7. There are some issues for the module with PR's that work for me. But, it appears as if the maintainer may not be active on that module.
Also, the js library that is used, https://github.com/fooplugins/FooTable appears as if it may be abandoned with the last commit in 2017, https://github.com/fooplugins/FooTable/issues/890. In addition the current version 3 of that library is slower than the previous version 2 and this is noticeable, https://github.com/fooplugins/FooTable/issues/888.
There have been other Drupal initiative for responsive tables including https://www.drupal.org/project/responsive_table_filter/releases/7.x-1.0 (Note: it is table not the plural that is a newer Drupal module, https://www.drupal.org/project/responsive_tables_filter.)
Do people have experience with these or other solutions for views responsive tables?

Maybe also worth exploring:
I‘ve recently tested DataTables and like it very much.
Thank you for the additional suggestions and feedback. I have tested both the https://github.com/backdrop-contrib/tabled and https://github.com/backdrop-contrib/datatables modules.
However, neither of them offer responsive behavior like https://github.com/backdrop-contrib/footable does where columns are visible on wide displays and collapsed on narrow displays. This is still my preferred option.
The datatables module includes a search function that is interesting but overall the module is very slow on first load of the table. I presume this is related to the datatables library. The module appears to be very new and features may be added as work proceeds. I have added a few issues to the queue including the question of responsive behavior that may be by own lack of knowledge on how to configure it.
