A spreadsheet is a low code app. Less flexible than a general purpose programming language, but still extremely valuable.

If low code apps simply provide more flexibility and maintainability than a spreadsheet, they’re already winning.

With the recent Lambda announcement, Excel is going to have a cool escape hatch for doing more complicated stuff right in the sheet without needing to dive into VBA. I honestly thought I would never get excited about a feature being added to Excel, but I was wrong. This looks friggin’ awesome!
