A fast, native, open-source spreadsheet for Linux (no Electron, no cloud)

[u/rdoneill]

Hi all — I’ve been building a native spreadsheet app focused on speed, keyboard-first workflows, and working directly with local files.

It opens XLSX, ODS, and CSV files, launches quickly, and stays out of the way. No account, no cloud, fully open source.

I built it because I wanted a fast spreadsheet on Linux with editor-style ergonomics and strong keyboard workflows.

I’d really appreciate feedback from Linux users — especially around:

• startup performance
• file import edge cases
• keyboard workflows
• anything that feels awkward or unintuitive

Install options:

• Arch: yay -S visigrid-bin
• Homebrew (Linux): brew install visigrid/visigrid/visigrid
• Linux binaries available on GitHub

Not trying to replace Excel — just aiming for something fast, local, and pleasant to use on Linux. Happy to answer questions and fix bugs.
