Grist brings SQL-style window functions to spreadsheets

Original: Adding Window Functions to a Spreadsheet

Grist, the open-source spreadsheet-database hybrid, has published a walkthrough showing how to perform running totals and other SQL-style window function calculations directly in a spreadsheet. The feature lets users apply analytics like cumulative sums and row comparisons without exporting data to SQL tools. Spreadsheets have long lacked native window functions, and the post is drawing attention from data and developer communities interested in spreadsheet-based analytics.

Why now: Developers and spreadsheet users find the idea of SQL-like window functions inside a spreadsheet novel and practically useful.
