The title would've been more honest if it said "Web Spreadsheet in 99 lines using AngularJS".
Indeed. https://github.com/audreyt/500lines/tree/master/spreadsheet mentions AngularJS and ES6 upfront, but in retrospect it'd be better to mention them in the title too. Thanks for the reminder!

I think the title is AOK. A very nice commentary as you work through building it, I think folk will find that very helpful. Thanks for being awesome.
Why? Is AngularJS spreadsheet software?
It also would have been more honest if it said "Web Spreadsheet in 99 lines using AngularJS and 11,331,980 lines of Code[1] in a modern web browser like Firefox."
