# Illuminating Data with Lume
The official [Sheets plugin](https://lume.land/plugins/sheets/) uses SheetJS to
load data from spreadsheets. New users should consult the official docs.
[Lume](https://lume.land/) is a lightweight unopinionated static site generator.
It has a rich ecosystem of JavaScript-powered plugins[^1]
[SheetJS](https://sheetjs.com) is a JavaScript library for reading and writing
data from spreadsheets.
This demo uses Lume and SheetJS (through the official "Sheets" plugin) to pull
data from a spreadsheet and display the content in an HTML table.
The ["Complete Example"](#complete-example) section includes a complete website
powered by an XLSX spreadsheet.
## Integration Details
The official "Sheets" plugin[^2] uses SheetJS to load data from spreadsheets.
Under the hood, the plugin uses the SheetJS `read`[^3] method to parse files and
the `sheet_to_json`[^4] method to generate arrays of objects.
Lume supports refreshing data during development. The generated static sites
include the raw data without referencing the underlying spreadsheet files.
## Integration Details
### Installation
The `sheets` plugin can be imported and invoked in `_config.ts`:

### Usage

:::note
The official documentation includes notes for more advanced use cases.
The lines are automatically added if `sheets` plugin is enabled during setup.
:::
### Usage
Spreadsheet files added in the `_data` subdirectory are accessible from template
files using the name stem.
For example, [`pres.numbers`](https://sheetjs.com/pres.numbers) can be accessed
using the variable `pres` in a template.
For example, [`pres.xlsx`](https://sheetjs.com/pres.xlsx) can be accessed using
the variable `pres` in a template.
