UI for WinUI
The Telerik WinUI SpreadProcessing library enables you to work with spreadsheet documents—create new ones from scratch, modify existing documents or convert between the most common spreadsheet formats. You can save the generated workbook to a local file, stream, or stream it to the client browser.
The library model allows you to employ C# and VB.NET, closely follows the established document standard, defined in the Office Open XML specification, and supports .NET Framework, .NET Core and .NET Standard.
Telerik WinUI SpreadProcessing is completely independent from external libraries or UI. Process Microsoft Excel documents without having Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Office or any third-party spreadsheet software installed on the client or server.
Common spreadsheet file extensions and formats, including XLSX (Excel Workbook), XLS (Excel 97-2003 Workbook), CSV, plain text and PDF (export only), are fully supported in the Telerik WinUI SpreadProcessing library.
The API also enables you to easily convert DataTable objects into Worksheet and vice versa in case you need to work with data from a database.

You can also leverage predefined filters, such as Top, Bottom, Above Average, Fill and ForeColor to perform advanced filtering or use custom logic to create your own filters.
Sorting is a feature that allows you to create, adjust and apply data sorting logic to select parts of the spreadsheet, such as rows, columns and ranges. Data can be organized in ascending and descending order, by Fill and ForeColor values or by custom sorting logic.
The autofill function enables you to automatically fill series of values into worksheet cells, based on a pattern. The SpreadProcessing API allows you to set cell values to repeat other cell values or apply algorithms for linear, linear trend, exponential, exponential trend sequences and date series.
