Is there some capable fully open source data grid providing spreadsheet functionality? Commercial / open-core are a no-go for me, since my goal is to integrate it into an open source project.

#103"Application error: a client-side exception has occurred (see the browser console for more information)." Shame.

#104This is absurdly expensive. It might be worth it, but can’tvl imagine many people would pay? Then again, I guess you need only one enterprise using this thing in all their apps.
Agreed. Interested in giving this a go, but current pricing is quite the turn off.

I'm working hard to open source (MIT) https://www.equalto.com/suresheet/ By Jan 10th. If that works for you, DM me. Will be in https://www.ironcalc.com

#106What the heck lol. My CS capstone project over a decade ago was a cross-platform app called “Columns and Rows.” Won some prizes from nVidia and Microsoft, with the exact same premise as OP. Written in Backbone.js though.

#108Genuine question: Why would anyone purchase this for $299, without the ability to use it commercially? For open-source projects?

#109The demo is neat. How did you do the backend? As far as I see your offering is only related to the UI components. What databases and backends are you seeing users have success with?
The demo does not use a back-end service. We are agnostic to back-end frameworks. Some users have used Prisma + Graphql, NoSQL databases etc. The Sheet data structure on the UI can be flexible too. It can come from streaming data source, lazily loaded on-demand or all stored in browser memory
Admittedly, I haven't clicked on the link, but you appear to have avoided their question altogether. You offer product demos. Those demos source data from something, be it a JSON file, REST API, etc. Where is the demo data sourced from?

#110Is it able to handle tables with 1,000,000+ rows?
Actually, this is an important comment. Building a spreadsheet with web technology is not that difficult. However, building one with more than just the most basic features, which performs well, once the data grows, is a surprisingly hard task. To give an example of what makes it so difficult: Some browsers (e.g. Chrome) seem to have special optimizations for rendering tables. So performance-wise it makes a difference…
Which approach is more optimized in Chrome?
