marketplace.visualstudio.com… is a very slick open source VSCode extension for viewing spreadsheets and other files, using SheetJS libraries under the hood :) vscode-data-preview in dark mode is visually pleasing compared to Excel's garish dark mode. Thanks @TarasNovak !
"Most open source software is written by programmers who are full-time employed by companies which directly consume the software"
However, many immensely useful projects are built/maintained by one or a few obscure developers who definitely deserve recognition for their efforts!
In the past, many people wished to donate to our open source efforts. We resisted donations in the past. This year, we are trying something new: opencollective.com/s5s All money received through the OC will be sent to lesser-known devs. @SheetJS will match up to $1000 this year
Open source software underpins the success of basically every technology company. Many OSS projects like @verdaccio_npm and @pnpmjs are primarily developed and maintained by one obscure developer in spare time. They definitely deserve recognition!
#SmashBros logo in #Excel using Conditional Formatting. @msexcel is there any chance for a collaboration with @NintendoAmerica wherein #Clippy joins the battle?
In a world where @npmjs and other core infrastructure fully embraced the "move fast and break things" mindset, it's great to see other people care deeply about stability. verdaccio.org/ "just works" and has saved us countless headaches. Thanks @verdaccio_npm !
The original @SheetJS logo was doodled on graph paper with colored pencils. SVG translation was straightforward but garish and impersonal. 5 minutes with @RoughLib left us with a logo and banner that captures the original spirit of the hand drawn version. Thanks @preetster !
iPad Pro + TIG App/WebDAV server (itunes.apple.com/us/app/tig-…) + Kodex editor (itunes.apple.com/us/app/kode…) = offline local JS development! (Need to "tether" so Tig sees WiFi is on). Browser libraries like Babel are usable (github.com/babel/babel-stand…). Thanks @brunophilipe @seokhyeoneee !

Design and implementation of a CSV/Excel/etc upload feature for SaaS products: bit.ly/1z2QU8l <-- OSS + SaaS UX geekery.

Three hours dev time with sheetjs.com and I have basically integrated I-can't-believe-its-not-Google-Sheets into the AR app.

If you do B2B SaaS take a look at sheetjs.com and start integrating it tomorrow. Goodness, it is beyond amazing.
@interlock Braindump sheetjs.tumblr.com/post/7054… -- in retrospect, it would be cool to stream data to in-browser parser eg oss.sheetjs.com/
@interlock XLS streaming is technically possible, but most parsers don't support disjointed CFB directories; Excel won't open partial charts
Nonzero chance that recent flood of traffic to stress test oss.sheetjs.com/stress.html took down GH pages: status.github.com/messages/2…
