This is pretty because Grist can react to changes in your data automatically, sending emails or firing webhooks. I only recently learned about grist and have been playing with it a bit in the hosted version. Thinking of adding it to my list of applications to run soon. Seems like it's not super well known in this sub though. Do people prefer something else?

That's cool I'd never heard of it. I've just been using libreoffice.

    It's excellent if you’re used to living in a spreadsheet. Tons of power & flexibility, and if I ever start a business it'll be one of the first apps I use. Can't think of a better option.

    For me as one person intermittently working on small-time projects, it was overkill. I don't need to track or log project details, so plaintext files work just fine for what I do.

    I've found it too hard to use. I wanted to use it like a Google Sheets but with a real Database and it's just way too complicated for me.

    I wasn't even able to do anything I can do in either sheets, excel or LibreOffice.
