There is no standard cross-platform approach to read and write files and data.
`XLSX.readFile` and `XLSX.writeFile` rely on platform-specific APIs to perform
the file read and write operations.  Not all platforms support the APIs used in
the library.

The demos in this section cover APIs that are not supported out-of-the-box:

<ul>{useCurrentSidebarCategory().items.map((item, index) => {
  const listyle = (item.customProps?.icon) ? {
    listStyleImage: `url("${item.customProps.icon}")`
  } : {};
  return (<li style={listyle} {...(item.customProps?.class ? {className: item.customProps.class}: {})}>
    <a href={item.href}>{item.label}</a>{item.customProps?.summary && (" - " + item.customProps.summary)}
  </li>);
})}</ul>
