    Excel-DNA - Free and easy .NET for Excel. This repository contains the core Excel-DNA library.

  • VBA is a fine language for many Excel tasks and is unlikely to go away any time soon. In terms of alternatives though you might consider the .NET family of languages F# and C# and VB.NET that are used across the software development industry. I am designing an addin that tightly integrates F# as a scripting language to replace many of the capabilities of VBA as well as providing easier access to external data sources. You can check it out at https://www.sharpcells.com If you need to customise the ribbon you could also look at https://excel-dna.net/ which allows you to work with any .NET language with more ability to customise Excel but is not as tightly integrated.
