Great stuff. A few things to fix.

Like how to add functions etc. This looks promising. https://github.com/myliang/x-spreadsheet/blob/master/src/cor...

I wrote this many years ago: https://sheets.alhur.es/

The source code is somewhere on GitHub, but I don't remember where exactly, I tried so many times to write a good spreadsheet. My final goal was to use them to power-up a structured n-dimensional app for storing any kind of data and visualizing it and doing computations like in a normal free-form spreadsheet.

I know a similar project. It has some years by now.

Bummer. Can’t edit a cell on iPad.

Still not sure why Apple hasn’t figured this out. It’s my main reason for still needing a laptop.

Apple still haven't learnt what Pro actually means yet. I'm not convinced they like professionals using their tablets or even their computers for that matter.

Note to rabid fanboys: don't bother. I use my ipad pro 12.9"s for making money on a daily basis. I know where the faults are.

It’s basically adding listeners for pointer etc events in addition to click events. It’s not difficult to implement.

entering a forumla completely breaks it

I can't tell if this is a bad build or maybe due a tracking thing, but running it locally browserified runs everything perfectly, mobile included.
