Ah nice memories, one of my first open source projects was to take a Google Sheet and convert it into a lightweight "database", basically parse the data and parse it into a big array of JSON data that could be used in any website:
const data = await driveDb('sheet-id');
console.log(data);
// [{ name: 'John', age: 31 }, { name: 'Sarah', age: 27 }, ...]

It was born very similarly to how the article describes it. For low-amount of data, a spreadsheet is IMHO a much better low-tech collaborative tool than a database.
