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?
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.
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!

An easy two pass shave tonight. Haverford just felt right for a chilly, dark, autumn evening.
I’m running low on the Haverford EdT and AS samples. I might need to get another Stirling order in the mail…

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

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?
