“WhY wOuLd YoU uSe ExCeL? I pReFeR tO cOdE mY oWn SoLuTiOn.”
No, Why would I spend a week coding something that I can create a pivot table and some charts for in an hour? Especially when if I code it myself, that means I now own and have to support my lovely new utility. Time is money and I’ve got way more important things to do than build custom reporting suites that no one except me is ever going to use.
I also prefer a spreadsheet, but for a proficient coder it’s not a week long job, unless they build it on bare metal. You can do a lot in an hour with a visualization library.
The only low-code platform I actually respect.
I hear a lot of devs that don’t seem to get this.

I’m borrowing that.
