How do I convert an Excel spreadsheet into a web app?

Upload the workbook to Datastripes, let it detect your sheets, columns and types, then use the App Builder to add charts, KPI cards and filters. Publish the app and share the link. There is no HTML, CSS or backend to write, and most workbooks take a few minutes.

Can I turn a workbook with multiple sheets into a web application?

Yes. Each sheet is read as its own table, so a multi-tab workbook becomes a multi-table app. You do not need to flatten everything into one sheet first.

What is the difference between an Excel-to-website and an Excel-to-web-app conversion?

A website is usually static content. A web app is interactive: users can filter, drill down and explore the data, and the app can be refreshed when the source spreadsheet changes. Datastripes builds the interactive kind.

Is it free to convert Excel to a web app?

Yes. The free tier covers importing spreadsheets, building an app and sharing it for individual use. Paid plans add larger datasets, team sharing and white-labeling.

Is my Excel data uploaded to a server?

By default Datastripes processes your file client-side in the browser, so the spreadsheet is not uploaded to a server just to build the app.

Do my Excel formulas keep working?

Values and structure are preserved on import, and calculated columns and metrics can be rebuilt in the grid or the App Builder. Datastripes is spreadsheet-first, so you keep working in a familiar grid instead of re-modeling your data for a generic app builder.

Why turn Excel into a web app

Excel is great for collecting and organizing data, but a file is a poor way to share it. Copies float around by email, everyone sees every column, and stakeholders get raw rows when they need charts and answers.A web app gives the same data filters, charts, drill-down and controlled access, and it works the same on desktop and mobile. Whether you call it converting Excel to a web application, a spreadsheet to web app, or creating an app from an Excel database, the goal is one link everyone can use.
