Spreadsheet Architect is a Ruby library for generating XLSX, ODS, and CSV spreadsheet files from ActiveRecord relations, plain Ruby objects, or raw tabular data. It supports styling, multi-sheet workbooks, and includes ActionController renderers for Rails while also working without Rails.

Use cases

• export activerecord records to xlsx in rails
• generate csv files from ruby arrays
• create styled excel spreadsheets from ruby objects
• export ods spreadsheets from a ruby app
• download spreadsheet reports from a rails controller
• convert tabular data to excel without rails

When to choose

• you need to export XLSX, ODS, or CSV from Ruby or Rails with minimal setup
• your data lives in ActiveRecord relations or plain Ruby objects
• you want styling, multi-sheet support, and Rails renderers in one gem

When to avoid

• you need to read or parse existing spreadsheet files rather than create them
• you need advanced Excel features like formulas, charts, or pivot tables
• you are not working in Ruby
