What if blueprints but for spreadsheets? Exists?

Last time I needed a spreadsheet it was very hard to get any derived data, even a simple map/filter, outside of trivialities like “sum this column”

@nikitonsky you know, that's a really neat idea. BRB making a SaaS out of it

@nikitonsky Excel has a good map/join/filter in their data importer. I believe it's called power query

@Paxxi yeah but I don’t want it only during import. I want it while working with data

This is called Enso and apparently it’s what Luna-lang team pivoted to. Does exactly what I want but the user interface... Not great

@nikitonsky I've talked to them a bit in the past. They're really receptive to feedback.

@nikitonsky Sorry: foreign datawrappers are a way in postgress to access external data like a spreadsheet as it was a sql table.

But I better read your blog before I say anything more off topic 😅
