HyperFormula is an open source, spreadsheet-like calculation engine ⚡
Description
HyperFormula allows you to perform spreadsheet-like calculations in your
web applications. It is written in TypeScript and supports all major
JavaScript frameworks. You can use it in a browser or as a service with
Node.js as your back-end technology.
The engine comes with a built-in, localized
library of functions
grouped into different categories, and covers most user-triggered actions
such as CRUD operations,
undo/redo,
and clipboard operations.
It also supports the use of cross-sheet references,
named expressions,
different data types,
and custom functions.
