All spreadsheets used to run in your terminal, in the old days. You can still download one here and I wouldn't be surprised if it still works: https://winworldpc.com/product/quattro-pro/4x

Right? Visicalc wasn't using anything that a terminal didn't offer.

See also, one of the older / more-robust entrants in this space [0], and one of the more innovative (still from a hot-second ago now…) [1].

All the best,

Teapot is pretty great, it's too bad there is close to zero room for real innovation in the spreadsheet domain. For the most part if it's not spreadsheeting how prophet Dan Bricklin envisioned, people don't want it.
