  I haven't looked into any of the dart backend frameworks. If I was starting something fresh today I'd probably look at NestJS. I like the Angular-ish approach, DI, modules, etc. Switching between Dart and Typescript isn't so bad.

  It's also worth noting that I've mostly been describing cloud-hosted services here. Some headless CMS options like Strapi are self-hosted, meaning you still have your decoupled layers, but they all live together on your server. This may be preferable for some applications.

  A lot of people recommend Prettier as an auto-formatter. I use Eslint and StandardJS. There's an option in VS Code that's "format on save" that will correct your formatting automatically. Then I also use Eslint as a pre-commit check with Husky to make sure nothing gets committed without the check.

  :green_book: SheetJS Community Edition -- Spreadsheet Data Toolkit

  Project mention: How can I map data from an excel sheet through react? | reddit.com/r/reactjs | 2021-02-19

  React is a library that only cares about rendering JavaScript data on the DOM and related stuff. If you need to read an Excel file and transform it into a JavaScript object, you need to use the html file picker and, once you load the blob, a library to parse this blob. Last time I used https://github.com/SheetJS/sheetjs
