Show HN: Plastron – A spreadsheet you grow into an app, in one index.html

Category: other

Tags: spreadsheet, dag, typeScript

Score: 4.8/10 (Innovation: 5, Technical: 6, Documentation: 4, Utility: 4)

Plastron is a single-file spreadsheet application built in TypeScript that uses a DAG-based formula system and a unique Lisp-like syntax (元) for defining cells and sheets. Its interesting approach of embedding readme content directly as a live spreadsheet formula and being MIT-licensed for reuse makes it a quirky experiment in spreadsheet-as-application paradigms.

Target audience: backend devs, frontend devs
