Show HN: Transform Google spreadsheets into a ready-to-embed widget table
- haberdasher 8y agoSolid demo video.
- maxigimenez 8y agoThank you!
- so_tired 8y agohttps://updatefy.co/documentation#types https://updatefy.co/documentation#types Err.. so there are only 3 widget types right now? This looks like a neat idea. More widgets needed. But i am not a UI or front-end guy. Am i mis-understanding? Are users supposed to design our own widgets?
- maxigimenez 8y agoThanks :) At the moment we have 3 widget types we are planning to release more. No, all widgets are coming from us :)
- shostack 8y agoGetting a video error when I try to watch. Does this let me display certain spreadsheet cells or arrays as say, an Android widget? I've been looking for something that lets me do that in a manner that offers solid privacy and security. Of the solutions I've seen in the app store, I'm not sure I feel convinced about those aspects of them. I wish Google would release a native Sheets Android widget.

- taf2 8y agoGreat demo
- maxigimenez 8y agoThank you!
- dominotw 8y agoGreat idea and clean demo. Do you know what some of your customers are doing with this in the real world.
- maxigimenez 8y agoThank you! Yes! For example one of our customers is using Updatefy to update order status in their websites, so any employee with Google Sheets knowledge can do it.
- slightwinder 8y agoHow do you know that?
- maxigimenez 8y agoI talked with them :), also is as a testimonial in home page https://updatefy.co https://updatefy.co
- jackallis 8y agohow long with smartsheet last?
- maxigimenez 8y agoHi, what do you mean? Theres no limit.
- somada141 8y agoThat looks fantastic! Have been looking for a way to embed a roadmap into my app while keeping the data disconnected from it in a frictionless way. Wonder if there could be a way to two-way-bind so that users can actually make changes to the data when displayed as a table.
- maxigimenez 8y agoThank you! and happy to hear that you might use it :) No, at the moment is only visible data, we don't support writing in the spreadsheet.
- ramsesc 8y agoGreat product! Looking forward to see whats coming.
- maxigimenez 8y agoThanks! :)
- ramsesc 8y agoCool idea! Looking forward to see what's coming.
- mnoah 8y agoVery cool! I like the logo a lot. I also have a web application that relies on spreadsheets but as an Excel file upload. Cool to see what is possible with Google Sheets.
- mnoah 8y agoThere's an idea for you. Create a static widget from a users uploaded .xlsx file..
