SheetJS Community Edition is a JavaScript library that reads, writes, and converts spreadsheet files (XLSX, XLS, CSV, ODS, and more) with a unified interface across browsers, Node.js, Deno, Bun, and mobile runtimes. It is the open-source core of the SheetJS toolkit, focused on extracting data from and generating spreadsheets compatible with both legacy and modern software.

Use cases

  • read xlsx files in javascript or nodejs
  • convert csv to excel and excel to csv
  • export data to an xlsx spreadsheet from a web app
  • parse excel spreadsheets into for a database import
  • generate downloadable spreadsheet reports in the browser
  • convert between spreadsheet formats like xls, xlsx, ods, and html tables
  • extract tabular data from uploaded excel files in a react, vue, or angular app

When to choose

  • You need to read or write Excel, CSV, or ODS files in JavaScript across browsers, Node, Deno, or Bun with one consistent API
  • You need a battle-tested, dependency-light spreadsheet parser with very broad legacy and modern format support
  • You need to move tabular data between spreadsheets and JavaScript objects or JSON in a data import/export pipeline

When to avoid

  • You need advanced styling, images, charts, PivotTables, or full formula evaluation, which are SheetJS Pro features beyond the Community Edition
  • You need a full interactive spreadsheet grid or editor UI rather than a data processing library
  • You need streaming, low-memory processing of extremely large workbooks, which may require a specialized streaming parser
