I like the idea: I was actually looking at an open source tool that does something similar: combine spreadsheets with python.

I do have a question: Similar tools tend to fall down after the code grows to a certain size. Modularity, unit tests, etc. become more useful at this point. I'm wondering if Neptyne will (or does?) support these sorts of features?

Edit: Here's a link to the developer docs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zLOXBoy-nf05SU3d5sZ7lDDg...



Having multiple code panes (files) is a recurring feature request that hopefully we'll get to at some point. Similarly we have some ideas around testing - automated testing for spreadsheets seems like it could be very useful! You can pip install anything you want though, so having your orgs libraries separately installable is one way to go about it.


open source data spreadsheet + python tool - were you looking at https://www.quadratichq.com/ ? or something else?
