This app is incredible. It opened a massive CSV file with 1.2 million rows in just about 10 seconds—a file that made Excel crash completely.

The modern interface is fantastic and exciting to use, unlike older tools that feel outdated. I also heard there are plans to go open source in the future, which is great news. Highly recommended!

amazing, opens so much faster than anything else I've used and easy to edit and search. Perfect

It opens CSV instantaneously on my Mac and allows for easy sorting by right clicking on column headers. A+. Only feature request I would like to see is opening .xlsx files natively from finder instead of needing to go through import menu in app.

This is a absolute killer app. Picture this: You need to explore visually some CSV data, so you double-slick the file and... wait for 20 seconds for Excel to boot up... Agggr. Instead, SmoothCSV does the job blazing fast. No wonder, it's written in rust. It also offers a very sleek interface and rich functionality to edit CSVs.

Install from the command line

  • brew install --cask smoothcsv

Be careful what you paste into a terminal. Check what a command installs before running it.

What is SmoothCSV?

SmoothCSV is a fast, full-featured CSV editor for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It is a good alternative to spreadsheet apps when you need to work with CSV files directly, without your data being changed.

It edits files in a familiar spreadsheet-like grid. When it opens a file, it detects the encoding, delimiter, and quoting, and keeps them as they are when saving. It also handles very large files smoothly.

For heavier work, it has a SQL console for running queries on CSV files, filters that accept SQL WHERE conditions, multi-cell editing, sorting, find and replace, and CSV comparison. A command palette and customizable keybindings make most actions available from the keyboard.

All features are free. An optional one-time license supports ongoing development.
