obsidian-excel-to-markdown-table
An Obsidian plugin to paste data from Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, Apple Numbers and LibreOffice Calc as Markdown tables in Obsidian editor.
Great stuff! If you'd like to add a spreadsheet to your React / MDX I created a similar small component https://github.com/iddan/react-spreadsheet
My text KeenWrite supports R Markdown. I wrote a simple function to convert CSV data into a Markdown table[1] along with a tutorial demonstrating usage[2]. This allows users to keep the data separate from the document.
Having the ability to apply spreadsheet functions as per EqualTo is brilliant.

Thanks!
Some of the tech is open source ( https://github.com/EqualTo-Software/stackedit-sheet-markup ) and some of it depends on tech in our closed-source EqualTo Sheets product ( https://sheets.equalto.com/ ), which is in beta right now. We've considered open-sourcing some / all of EqualTo Sheets, and it may yet happen, but it's not something I could commit to right now.
I use advanced tables[0] and Excel to markdown tables[1] plugins - they make working with tables in Obsidian a bit easier.
That said, I think tables are markdown's Achilles heel - anything involving multi-line content starts to make things complicated.
