EtherCalc VS x-spreadsheet

Somewhat random, but spreadsheets continued to evolve after VisiCalc (obviously).

Here is one by the inventor of VisiCalc, Dan Bricklin, on github: https://github.com/DanBricklin/socialcalc

Audrey Tang (who happens to currently serve as the Minister of Digital Affairs of the Republic of China (Taiwan)) created the Node.js port of SocialCalc, EtherCalc: https://github.com/audreyt/ethercalc

Audrey made a fascinating write up of SocialCalc for The Architecture of Open Source Applications https://aosabook.org/en/v1/socialcalc.html

if you need office stuff ON CLOUD then no idea there are several random ones like https://github.com/audreyt/ethercalc (demo on top right the website works fine and is multi-user collab) and there are libreoffice ones that work in cloud too, though using them in browser never really made sense to anything I've seen. I've never been to any office or consulted anywhere that multi-user actually helped anyone.

I think there's several possible solutions: * No-code/low-code database platforms (e.g., NocoDB) * Personal finance manager (e.g., Firefly III) * Spreadsheets (e.g., CryptPad for a full office suite or Ethercalc) * Task management systems (e.g., Vikunja)

Office solutions (e.g., spreadsheets): CryptPad and EtherCalc

ethercalc: supports editing by multiple clients simultaneously. Pretty easy to setup.

Try CryptPad or EtherCalc.

Ethercalc, although a bit dated, works ok on docker https://github.com/audreyt/ethercalc

https://github.com/myliang/x-spreadsheet for the spreadsheet app in js

Is "NPM Weekly Downloads" really useful for browser libraries? https://github.com/myliang/x-spreadsheet is very popular and missing from this list. Docs recommend using UNPKG. UNPKG caches npm so usage does not count towards the npm download count.

You're problem would still be the fact that multiple people at the same time cannot use this. You could build this in a webapp (on top of apps script) and use a JavaScript spreadsheet where people can enter there data. Then do your think with the data..
