hucre is a zero-dependency spreadsheet engine written in pure TypeScript that reads and writes XLSX, CSV, ODS, JSON, NDJSON, and XML with schema validation, streaming, and round-trip preservation. It ships as tree-shakeable ESM modules that work in browsers, Node.js, and edge runtimes.

Use cases

• parse xlsx files in typescript
• generate excel files from json data
• read and write csv with type inference
• convert ods spreadsheets to json
• export spreadsheet in edge runtime or browser
• stream large csv files without dependencies
• replace sheetjs or exceljs with a lightweight library

When to choose

• you need a small, tree-shakeable, zero-dependency spreadsheet parser/writer
• you target edge runtimes or CSP-restricted environments where eval-based libraries fail
• you want native TypeScript types and native ESM
• you need round-trip preservation across XLSX, CSV, ODS, and JSON formats

When to avoid

• you need advanced Excel features like charts, pivot tables, or macros
• you rely on SheetJS's CDN-only distribution or its broader ecosystem
• you need a battle-tested library with years of production hardening for complex legacy XLSX files
