Getting Started with XiSheet

Alpha status (14 October 2026): XiSheet is planned and its public installer is not verified. This page describes the checked GridCraft foundation; XiKey integration is still in progress. Alpha is free today.

Overview

XiSheet is the XiKey™ spreadsheet project for formulas, tables, PivotTables and charts, based on GridCraft. It belongs to the XiOffice bundle with XiWrite, XiSheet and XiSlides. The following guides describe the checked upstream foundation.

Installing via XiLauncher

Installation through XiLauncher is still in progress. No public XiSheet installer or catalog installation workflow is verified. Check the product page for release availability.

First-Launch Welcome Screen

The XiKey splash, About and message dialogs are in progress. The Arabic interface and one-click language switch are in progress. Classic/Modern layouts and Retina scaling are planned. These statuses do not establish a shipped first-launch screen. The checked upstream includes its own view and appearance controls.

Opening and Saving Workbooks

The checked foundation opens and saves XLSX, CSV and TSV, with PDF and HTML export. XLS import is partial; ODS and XLSB import cached data only. Complex charts and workbook content may lose detail. Non-Latin PDF text is unsupported.
