I'm hoping for a Jupyter/Excel hybrid, but that's mostly wishful thinking.

- st1x7 6y agoPlease no. Excel is great when it stays within its lane and use case and doesn't try to be everything. Jupyter is okay-ish is some places but in general is way overused. Mixing them together would be a move in the wrong direction and a bit of a mess.
- Aperocky 6y agoOh no.
- gota 6y agoIf you mean to retire VB in favor of Python for writing macros, I'm all for it. Not much Jupyter though
- likelybear 6y agoThat's arguably the goal of [Pluto.jl](https://github.com/fonsp/Pluto.jl https://github.com/fonsp/Pluto.jl). It's a (Julia-specific) reactive notebook that automatically updates all affected cells and has no hidden state.
- DylanDmitri 6y agoOoh that's really good, thank you for sharing!
- antupis 6y agoThat looks so good that I am thinking about learning Julia.

- askvictor 6y agoThere's been a few projects in this space (PySpread is the first that jumps to mind), but also, not too long ago (last year maybe?), MS was investigating making Python a first-class inhabitant of Excel, so might already be in the pipeline.
