JavaScript Spreadsheet

[edit]

A JavaScript spreadsheet is a software component or library used developers to add Excel-like spreadsheet functionality in web applications. These components are made with JavaScript and can be integrated with various JavaScript frameworks like React, Angular, and Vue.

Features

[edit]

Some of the main features of a JavaScript spreadsheet are very similar to those found in Excel. Major features include, but are not limited to:

  • Cell-Level Customization
  • Advanced Calculations
  • Worksheet Creation and Editing
  • Conditional Formatting
  • Filtering
  • Function Creation
  • Document Import & Export
  • Sparklines
  • Chart Creation

Open Source vs Commercial

[edit]

A JavaScript spreadsheet can be found from both Open Source and Commercial providers. The differences are usually the most noticeable in terms of available features and product support.

  • Open Source: The source code and subsequently the component or software are available freely. The product may have some community support, but this is not guaranteed, and updates may be limited or not supported.
  • Commercial: The product needs to be purchased. This usually is done using a product license key, and could be subscription based or via a one-off transaction that grants the user access to the software. There is usually support and subsequent versions bringing new features to the software.

[edit]

Some of the following are providers of JavaScript spreadsheet software:

  • Handsontable
