I was excited for 5 seconds then sorely disappointed.

Can't wait for the adhoc databases and applications that are critical to the business built on this.....
When you do your job as a developer so good you have to allow users to use a whole programming language to get the functionality they need.
Although this might speak to the abuses of excel in the business world more than the failures of excel, tbh. Maybe both?
Well… a programming language has been attached to Excel for well more than a decade, maybe two. Visual Basic for Applications is there for user defined functions and otherwise. It’s just that VBA is old and clunky af, and there’s been a need for the integration of a more modern set of coding tools for a long while.
New meta in the excel esports??
Why not java
Im sure this wont bring any vulnerability /s
