syncfusion-flutter-excel

Original：🇺🇸 English

Translated

Create and manipulate Excel workbooks using Syncfusion Flutter XlsIO library. Supports two modes — generate Dart code for the user's Flutter project or provide code snippets. Use when the user mentions Excel creation, worksheets, cells, formatting, filtering, hyperlinks, or Syncfusion Flutter XlsIO.

Excel Document Processing Using Syncfusion Flutter XlsIO Library

Overview

Create, edit, and save Excel workbooks (.xlsx) using the Syncfusion Flutter XlsIO library. This skill supports generating Dart code snippets for Flutter projects targeting mobile, web, and desktop platforms.

Key Capabilities

Create & Edit: Workbooks, worksheets, cells, rows, columns, cell formatting, styles, formulas, named ranges, charts, images, hyperlinks, data validation, conditional formatting
Data Management: Import data (lists, typed data, hyperlinks, images), export data, advanced filtering (text, custom, date, dynamic, color filters), freeze panes, show/hide rows/columns
Advanced Features: RTL layout for international support, CSV export, template-based operations, data validation rules (text, list, number, date, decimal, custom)
Charts & Visualization: Create and configure all chart types (pie, bar, column, line, stacked, 3D, specialized), customize elements (title, legends, labels, positioning)
Security: Password protection, worksheet/workbook encryption, cell protection with unlock options
Page Setup: Margins, page breaks, print areas, page orientation, headers/footers

Prerequisites

Flutter SDK installed

Add dependencies to

pubspec.yaml

yaml

dependencies:
  syncfusion_flutter_xlsio: ^xx.x.xx
  syncfusion_officechart: ^xx.x.xx

Run:
```
flutter pub get
```

Import in Dart code:

dart

import 'package:syncfusion_flutter_xlsio/xlsio.dart';
import 'package:syncfusion_officechart/officechart.dart';

Quick Start Example

Generate Dart Code

User: "Show me how to create an Excel workbook with multiple sheets" Result: Dart code snippet displayed (no files created)

Mode: Generate Dart Code for the User's Flutter Project

Trigger keywords: "show me how", "how to", "how can I", "how do I", "provide code", "provide an example", "give an example", "demonstrate", "code snippet", "sample code", "example", "sample", "give me", "show me", "main.dart", "example code", "generate code for", "codesnippet".

Workflow:

Step 1 — Detect the Platform and Suggest the Correct Package

Inspect the workspace project files (
```
pubspec.yaml
```
,
```
main.dart
```
, etc.) to identify the Flutter platform target (mobile, web, desktop).
Tell the user to add
```
syncfusion_flutter_xlsio
```
to their
```
pubspec.yaml
```
before generating any code.

Step 2 — Generate Code from Reference Files Only

Do NOT invent, guess, or suggest any API, class, method, or property not explicitly present in the reference files.

Read the relevant
```
references/*.md
```
file(s) for the requested feature
Build Dart code strictly from the APIs and snippets found in those files
Use the correct save/launch pattern for the target platform:
- Mobile →
```
getApplicationSupportDirectory()
```
  +
```
OpenFile.open()
```
- Desktop →
```
getApplicationSupportDirectory()
```
  +
```
OpenFile.open()
```
- Web → base64 + JavaScript download or
```
web
```
  package approach
Do not create or run any standalone Dart script

Code References

All snippets are in the

references/

folder:

File	Contents
references/workbook.md	Create, save/dispose, async operations, RTL layout, CSV export
references/worksheet.md	Create, access, tab color, sizing, freeze panes, page setup
references/cell-data.md	Add text, numbers, dates, and other data types to cells; create hyperlinks
references/hyperlinks.md	Add URL and mailto hyperlinks
references/named-ranges.md	Create and use named ranges in formulas
references/data-filtering.md	Text, custom, date, dynamic, and color filters
references/cell-formatting.md	Create styles, apply globally, merge/unmerge cells, built-in styles
references/number-formats.md	Number, currency, percentage, date, time, accounting, scientific, fraction, text formats
references/rows-columns-manipulation.md	Insert, delete, auto-fit, show/hide rows and columns; set width/height; number formats
references/formulas.md	Enable calculations, apply formulas, access values, nested functions, and 25+ functions (general, logical, text, time, lookup, statistical, math)
references/charts-basics.md	Create charts, customize elements (title, legends, labels, positioning)
references/charts-types.md	All chart types (pie, bar, column, line, stacked, markers, 3D, specialized)
references/images.md	Insert, resize, flip, and rotate images (JPEG, PNG) in worksheets
references/security.md	Protect workbooks and worksheets with passwords, unlock cells for editing
references/conditional-formatting-basics.md	Cell value, text, date, unique/duplicate, top/bottom, above/below average formatting
references/conditional-formatting-advanced.md	Color scales, icon sets, data bars, custom icons with visual analytics
references/data-import.md	Import lists, typed data, hyperlinks, and images into worksheets
references/data-validation.md	Text, time, list, number, decimal, date, and custom formula validation rules
references/tables.md	Create, style, and manage Excel tables with built-in themes
references/culture.md	Culture/locale settings for dates, times, numbers, and currency formatting
references/page-setup.md	Page setup and print settings (orientation, margins, page breaks, print area)

Rules

Do NOT create or run temp scripts — this skill only generates code for user projects (Mode 1)
Generate code strictly from reference files — never invent APIs or methods

Always include proper imports:

import 'package:syncfusion_flutter_xlsio/xlsio.dart';

and

import 'package:syncfusion_officechart/officechart.dart';

For mobile/desktop apps: Use

getApplicationSupportDirectory()

OpenFile.open()

for file saving

For web apps: Use base64 + JavaScript download or
```
web
```
package approach
Always call
```
workbook.dispose()
```
after saving to release memory
Save workbooks synchronously using
```
saveSync()
```
or asynchronously using
```
save()
```

Remind users to add

syncfusion_flutter_xlsio

and

syncfusion_officechart

pubspec.yaml

before using generated code
