📚 IronCalc
IronCalc is a new, modern, work-in-progress spreadsheet engine and set of tools to work with spreadsheets in diverse settings.
This repository contains the main engine and the xlsx reader and writer.
Programmed in Rust, you will be able to use it from a variety of programming languages like Python, JavaScript (wasm), nodejs and possibly R, Julia or Go.
We will build different skins: in the terminal, as a desktop application or use it in you own web application.

📝 ROADMAP
Warning
This is work-in-progress. IronCalc in developed in the open. Expect things to be broken and change quickly until version 0.5
Major milestones:
- MVP, version 0.5.0: We intend to have a working version by mid March 2024 (version 0.5, MVP)
- Stable, version 1.0.0 will come later in December 2024
MVP stands for Minimum Viable Product
Version 0.5 or MVP (15 March 2024)
Version 0.5 includes the engine, javascript and nodejs bindings and a web application
Features of the engine include:
- Read and write xlsx files
- API to set and read values from cells
- Implemented 192 Excel functions
- Time functions with timezones
- Prepared for i18n but will only support English
- Wide test coverage
UI features of the web application (backed by the engine):
- Enter values and formulas. Browse mode
- Italics, bold, underline, horizontal alignment
- Number formatting
- Add/remove/rename sheets
- Copy/Paste extend values
- Keyboard navigation
