Really cool tool. A few reasons I'm excited about it:
- Even though I'm a dev, I find myself hating the maintenance of internal tools
- I looked through my GSuite and realize that I'm already using sheets to build micro apps. Each spreadsheet I create is a basic tool for collaborating around data. Adding a meta layer on top of it to enable things like permissions + better UI is a totally natural next step. I think there's a bit of an education piece to get spreadsheet users to realize that they're building micro apps, but once that aha moment happens, I think the value prop of stacker is really clear.

Excited to see where you all go :)
