I'm not sure I completely compel with your idea.

The reason is, I don't think there is a single website out there, which couldn't be described in a spreadsheet.

What I suggest though, is take a look at this, and throw your companies sheet at it in a 30 minute hack session. If this proves unfruitful, I'd be happy to hear all about it.

Spreadsheets are a terrible way to make web-sites, though.

One of the bits I agree about, is that we should be very wary that we, developers, don't get replaced by one.

Friendly reminder that this is literally the whole point of the job. Automation. Making people stop doing tasks that can be done by machines - which often means replacing people with code. Sometimes even ourselves.


Yeah, I know:

    Spreadsheets > Web.
