Ask HN: CSV with Formulas

I'm thinking about creating library to render and manipulte CSV.

But it should have ability to use formulas, like =SUM(A:A) or =SUM(A1:A-CURRENT-1)

And optionall formating maybe at the end of the cell {cell-css: {color: red, font-size: 28px}} or {row-css: {color: red, font-size: 28px}} (CSS attributes)

Why?

I want to create local personal databases. But a little more powerful than plain CSV.

Text can be shared.

Do you have proposition for syntax or architecture?
