[How to replace spreadsheets with custom software (without stopping the business)](https://www.seamwire.com/guides/replace-spreadsheets-with-custom-software): Replace a business-critical spreadsheet in four steps: write down exactly what it does today (including the unwritten rules), build a tool that does the same job first, run both side by side until they agree, then move the data across and retire the sheet, keeping an export so nothing is ever trapped. -
