I actually quite like the UI of MS Office, but nevertheless I don't understand why so many competitors try to make clones. Say what you want, but MS has a huge head start here and everyone else is just making worse looking copies of the way MS Office looked years ago.

And of course, is this really the final form of office applications? Is it maybe time to just go back to the drawing board, think about workflows, the current state of technology, future trends, and build a UI that works maybe even better, looks cleaner, fits on more screens?

    That’s actually what I like about Apple Numbers… it’s not trying to be Excel.

Is this be the long awaited LibreOffice modernization?

I think it’s remarkable how almost every popular application makes the step of being a web-app at some point. It makes total sense but is a bit of a funny double shoe horning situation here.

The birth and death of javascript remains accurate.
