Realtime Spreadsheets with Laravel

August 27, 2020

I've been tweeting a lot about a real-time spreadsheet that I've been building at work.

Thanks to @handsontable, @laravelphp Echo, and @pusher, I've got a real-time, collaborative, internal spreadsheet tool. And it only took a couple of days!

These tools are so amazing because they let us focus on the important parts of our apps instead of the plumbing. pic.twitter.com/stjOFbCRwu

The lovely folks at Handsontable did a nice writeup about it! Head over there to read more about it.

Want to get more in the weeds? Let me know on twitter and I may write something up.

Thanks for reading! My name is Aaron and I'm currently working at small property tax firm in Texas called Resolute Property Tax Solutions, where I serve dual roles as COO & CTO. I spend most of my time trying to streamline and automate processes with the help of Laravel, Tailwind, Vue, and even spreadsheets from time to time. Feel free to reach out to me on Twitter if you ever have any questions or need some help with something.
