Description
jupyterlab-spreadsheet depends on xlsx which seems to be the most popular choice. Alternatives include exceljs and xlsx-populate. This needs further evaluation (contributions welcome!).
We would ideally want to have:
- typescript typings
- modern codebase (no jQuery please)
- both proprietary and open formats support
- as little peer dependencies as possible
- good maintainership history (especially with regard to security patches)
- high fidelity/standard compliance
Implementation wise, we would want to implement:
- multiple sheets support (but the initial proof-of-concept version could just use the first sheet)
- "save as" feature so that one can convert Excel sheets into more friendly csv/tsv format
Please feel free to comment to add your own needs and wishes!
