Show HN: ZetaJS – client-side LibreOffice widget and automation in the browser (github.com/allotropia)
5 points by thorstenb 4 months ago | hide | past | favorite | 4 comments
ZetaJS wraps ZetaOffice, a WASM version of LibreOffice - and makes accessing the entire gamut of the LibreOffice programmability interfaces from JavaScript convenient, idiomatic & extremely fast.

If you always wanted an entire client-side office suite in the browser, that you could fully automate with JS & seamlessly embed in your web apps - and on top of that, be able to self-host it & keep all data on the client, since there's literally no server involved (except for some static wasm & JS blobs) - then this might be for you.




Someone please correct me if I'm wrong but this is only available for Android --- not iOS.


ZetaJS is a browser-based version (using LibreOffice WebAssembly) - that should work (tm) on all reasonably modern browsers, including iOS. But see compat matrix for details: https://webassembly.org/features/


The Calc demo seems to fail on iOS.


If you could file an issue please, at https://github.com/allotropia/zetajs/issues (with os version & hardware, if relevant)?
