Spreadsheets Your Way
by Matt JensenShipped a major UX improvement for authors: allowing them to upload their spreadsheets without changing them.
It may seem obvious that Excel authors wouldn't want to change their spreadsheets just to work with Excelkits. However when I built the MVP that was not at all obvious to me 🤷♂️. In order to ship quickly and start getting feedback I largely punted on this massive UX problem.
This release allows users to author charts just as they do in Google Sheets/Excel, so was a no-brainer step towards quick & easy publishing. A key quality of Excelkits needs to be making authoring easy. While this feature came at great cost (litterally months of work) it was a critical step towards my goal of attracting 100 paying users.
