Run Example with Cargo

You can explore this example locally following the steps below:

1. clone or fork this repository
2. git submodule update --init --recursive
   • The above command downloads the required C library so we can compile
3. cargo run --example hello_spreadsheet

You should then see the example in target/simple1.xlsx. Enjoy!
