Show HN: I created a spreadsheet in a plain text file

I built a plain-text spreadsheet format and an app for working with it.It began with small tasks like tracking my dog's health records and organizing records for tax season. Full spreadsheet apps always felt excessive, while Markdown tables don't support formulas.Also, its compact and readable syntax lets AI read and edit a workbook directly, without spreadsheet-specific tools. You can try the in-app agent on the desktop version with ChatGPT sign-in.Ordinate is now open source and available to try. My hope is for it to do for spreadsheets what Markdown did for documents.For more about it: https://ordinate.dev
