I just wanted to open a CSV file quickly.

Instead, I got:

  • Slow spreadsheet apps
  • Online tools that upload my data
  • Way too much friction

So I defined a simple goal:

  • Fast and frictionless
  • Fully local (no uploads)
  • Spreadsheet-like experience

That’s what I built.

What you can do with it

  • Open CSV files instantly (drag & drop, no setup)
  • Search and filter large datasets in seconds
  • Edit data like a spreadsheet
  • Export exactly what you see

Why this matters

Everything happens locally in your browser:

  • Your data never leaves your device
  • No account required
  • No tracking, no storage

Built with client-side JavaScript — no backend involved.

Just open, edit, and export.

How it works

Built with client-side JavaScript — no backend involved.

Spreadsheet-Like Editing

Click a cell to select it, then press Enter or double-click to start editing.

Press Enter again to save the value and move to the cell below. Use Option + Enter on macOS or Alt + Enter on Windows to insert a line break.

You can also drag the small fill handle to copy a value across multiple cells.

Export the Current View

The exported CSV reflects the current table state, including:

  • Search results
  • Sorting order
  • Visible columns
  • Saved cell edits

Try it yourself

Open a CSV file, edit a few cells, and export it —

all without uploading anything.
