✨ Metadata — a whole class for the metadata.xml vibe ✨

okay bestie, quick intro: we're living in Excel:...tadata(3pm), a User Contributed Perl Documentation page, and it is so short but so important. let's get into it 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

Metadata — a class for writing the Excel XLSX metadata.xml file. that's it, that's her entire job, and she does it flawlessly. no cap.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

not me giving you a synopsis that just points somewhere else 😭

See the documentation for Excel::Writer::XLSX.

like… the real tea is over there. go look. 🫶

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

This module is used in conjunction with Excel::Writer::XLSX.

basically it's the sidekick, the hype-woman, the supporting cast member with main character energy — she shows up when Excel::Writer::XLSX needs her and she writes that metadata.xml. iconic behavior honestly. 👑

⭐ DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY ⭐

See the documentation for Excel::Writer::XLSX.

i'm not gonna spell out the whole no-warranty speech here, the other page handles it. but fr fr: no promises, bestie, use at your own risk. 💀

real talk: this page is short because Metadata is a little behind-the-scenes class. it doesn't need 40 flags. it needs you to go read Excel::Writer::XLSX. which is, respectfully, the actual assignment. 📚

and that's the whole page, periodt. this beauty shipped with perl v5.40.1 and was dated 2025-12-22, in case you're the kind of person who checks timestamps (honestly? valid). mwah, go write some spreadsheets. 💖✨🎀
