EPPlus is a .NET library for reading and writing Excel xlsx files using the Office Open XML format, with no dependencies or Excel interop required. This original JanKallman repository is archived; development moved to EPPlusSoftware/EPPlus under a new noncommercial license.

Use cases

  • generate excel reports from .net applications
  • read xlsx files in c# without excel installed
  • create spreadsheets with charts and pivot tables programmatically
  • export data grids to excel
  • add formulas and conditional formatting to worksheets in code
  • encrypt or protect generated excel workbooks

When to choose

  • you need a mature LGPL-licensed .NET library for Excel file manipulation without interop
  • you want fast cell access via dictionaries and full .NET integration
  • you need features like charts, pivot tables, VBA, and formula calculation

When to avoid

  • you need ongoing updates or support - use the successor EPPlusSoftware/EPPlus instead
  • your project is commercial and you want the newer versions under the Polyform Noncommercial license
  • you need to edit other Office formats like docx or pptx
