Python in Excel: Combining the Power of Python and the Flexibility of Excel
Reading the headline, I initially thought that Microsoft bought the company behind XLWings [1], which also enables you to use Excel directly within Excel, even locally. Not affiliated in any kind to that company, just used it in the past.

Creating slicers with xlwings
I'm trying to automate a report and I know xlwings does not support pivot tables and slicers, as it is essentially a pywin32 wrapper. You can directly reference the COM object using .api and constants

Also you can also use xlwings library to build an excel add-on to replace or even augment VBA.

I Built Linux from Scratch
For something that's more of a prepackaged build-your-own-Linux kit, KISS Linux[0] is also interesting. It's kind of a microdistro with minimal abstraction over the raw guts, and "packages" are just pre-downloaded source code repos that you compile yourself.
The "package manager" is just a shell script. The installation process[1] is entirely manual, so you control every step as you bootstrap up to building your own kernel and installing each subsystem all the way up to compiling and running Firefox. It's pretty neat.

Quick question
A good Bash code to read is some projects from GH user dylanaraps a creator of neofetch and KISS Linux (kiss is a package manager written in POSIX sh) another repo to explore is bashbox (forked from dylanaraps/bareutils) A coreutils written in pure bash.

Published a new crate - service-manager - to interact with launchd, systemd, sc.exe, and more
See KISS for examples - this is a real desktop system used by some people (including me... hopefully)
