Skills for Claude Code

Skills for Claude Code are bundled instructions that give Claude deep knowledge of Handsontable and HyperFormula. Install them once, then ask Claude to build, configure, or debug -- it pulls from the same product docs you're reading right now, so the code it writes matches current APIs instead of guessing from outdated training data.

Two skills, one install

The <a href="https://github.com/handsontable/handsontable-skills" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">repo</a> ships two skills:

• handsontable -- the data grid component. Covers React, Angular, Vue, and vanilla JS setup, configuration, theming, cell types, sorting, filtering, formulas, hooks, performance, and v17 migration.
• hyperformula -- the headless calculation engine. Covers instance creation, CRUD, custom functions, named expressions, error handling, batch operations, and Node.js usage.

Use handsontable when you're building a visible grid in a web app. Use hyperformula when you're evaluating formulas programmatically without a UI -- server-side calculations, pricing engines, what-if analysis. Claude loads whichever is relevant based on what you ask.

Install with one command

In Claude Code, add the marketplace and install both skills:

/plugin marketplace add handsontable/handsontable-skills
/plugin install handsontable-skills@handsontable-skills

For Cowork or Claude.ai web, download the zip from the latest GitHub release and drag it into chat. For the Claude API, upload the skill folder directly. Full instructions live in the repo README.

Versioned to match releases

Each skill is tagged to the product version it targets -- handsontable/v17.0.0 is the skill for Handsontable 17, hyperformula/v3.2.0 is the skill for HyperFormula 3.2. You always know which API surface Claude is working from.
