From what ive seen and some guessing, im thinking you are trying to make Excel a platform, where a Platform means something that is programmable rather than just an App that a user can click or type text in.

What platform ideas will you bring in addition to what you have done.

Im asking because I am also creating a spreadsheet platform, where everything (lots) of features are programmable rather than users being forced to use what the UI provides.

Yeah we think there is an opportunity to really open up the xlsx runtime. There are a lot of smart people in the world - and we're excited for them to build on top.
