I took a quick look at sotd.nvim and I might be deterred by the json formatting. Json is great and everything, but that would be pretty tedious for me!

Is there a json tool where you can copy in a spreadsheet and it'll try and format it for you?

Something like this might work (caveat that I haven’t tried it)

https://csvjson.com/

You’d lose the blade count tracking though unless you tossed the json back into csv format after each shave.

I wonder how difficult it would be to support csv as a format. Would that meet your needs, or would .xlsx be necessary?

I'm also vaguely considering a refactor to use a sqlite file instead of json. I think that would be a better experience, even though the file format is more opaque.

Plus then I could in theory track my shaves in the database and do my own analytics!

Well, I took another look, and I don't think neovim is for me. I looked at installing one of the dependencies, and the dependency had dependencies, and I don't know how to install any of it. Oh well!

The spreadsheet I use is really easy. I can do it on my phone while I'm traveling, too.

Yeah, this is certainly geared more toward folks who are already using/familiar with neovim.

If what you're doing ain't broke, don't fix it! :)

Right now I have all of my soaps, blades, etc. in a Google Sheets. I can copy/paste, or export to whatever they allow. Maybe I'll tinker with it later.
