In plain words

Script Excel with Python is a development tool that allows users to write and execute Python code within Excel spreadsheets. Launched in 2012, it bridges the gap between Python's programming capabilities and Excel's familiar spreadsheet interface. The tool is designed for developers and data analysts who want to leverage Python's functionality while working in Excel. It enables users to automate tasks, perform complex calculations, and manipulate data directly within their spreadsheets.

    We (me and @aarondia) built a tool to help you turn psuedo-software Excel files into real-software Python. Ideally, Pyoneer helps you automate your manual Excel processes. You can try it today here: https://pyoneer.ai. How it works: 1. You upload an Excel file 2. We statically parse the Excel file and build a dependency graph of all the cells, tables, formulas, and pivots. 3. We do a graph traversal, and translate nodes as we hit them. We use OpenAI APIs to translate formulas. There’s a bunch of extra work here — because even with the best prompt engineering a fella like me can do,…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
