xlwings - Make Excel fly with Python!

=====================================



xlwings (Open Source)

---------------------



xlwings is a `BSD-licensed `_ Python library that makes it easy to call Python from Excel and vice versa:



* **Scripting**: Automate/interact with Excel from Python using a syntax that is close to VBA.

* **Macros**: Replace your messy VBA macros with clean and powerful Python code.

* **UDFs**: Write User Defined Functions (UDFs) in Python (Windows only).



**Numpy arrays** and **Pandas Series/DataFrames** are fully supported. xlwings-powered workbooks are easy to distribute and work

on **Windows** and **macOS**.



xlwings includes all files in the xlwings package except the ``pro`` folder, i.e., the ``xlwings.pro`` subpackage.
