That’s what I came here to post. People always think that other software are actual options. If you are using drools rules then other software can’t even follow the xlsx standard properly enough to even allow drools to compile correctly. It sucks because I’d rather not have to get licenses for my whole team to use excel when there’s plenty of free options and we don’t even use it that much, but it’s just so far into another league it isn’t even close.
I mean, maybe, but that doesn’t really change anything. Excel is better for a lot of use cases and whether that’s due to terrible antitrust violations or not doesn’t really change the fact of the matter. I honestly would love to use Libre or Open office, and it’s literally the first thing I tried, it just doesn’t work for most of the things I would need it for.
oh sorry, forgot I wasn’t on a programming community. It’s a software for writing rules for business operation. Not relevant to the majority of people on the planet.

What are drools rules? All the pages I’m reading are very high level “bueiness rules” what does that even mean?
