Google Sheets is already one of the most versatile tools in the Google Workspace ecosystem, but when you combine it with Apps Script, it becomes a full-fledged programmable powerhouse.

Today, I’m sharing something special:
👉 100 custom Google Sheets functions written entirely in Apps Script — clean, flexible, fast, and ready to paste into any spreadsheet.

These functions cover everything from text cleanup to date automation, math utilities, lookups, data normalization, regex operations, and visual outputs like progress bars and emojis.

Whether you are an educator, analyst, developer, project manager, or power user, these tools will dramatically speed up your workflows and enable Sheets to do things it was never designed to do natively.

🧰 What’s Inside the 100-Function Collection?

I created this collection with a simple goal:

Give anyone using Google Sheets superpowers, without requiring add-ons or external libraries.

The result is a single Apps Script file containing 100 polished functions, organized into categories:

1️⃣ Text Utilities (1–20)

Clean, format, transform, and sanitize data:

Convert case across entire ranges
Extract only digits or letters
Count characters or words
Smart title case
Generate initials
Strip HTML
Join, prefix, and suffix ranges

2️⃣ Date & Time Helpers (21–35)

Automate date math and calendar logic:

Workday calculations
Days until events
Start/end of month
ISO week numbers
Age calculation
Next weekday or workday

3️⃣ Math & Statistics (36–55)

Better-than-native numerical tools:

Weighted averages
Normalization
Positive/negative summing
Mode, median, top N
Unit conversions
BMI
Safe rounding and clamping

4️⃣ Lookup, Arrays, Regex (56–75)

Advanced data manipulation:

Exact VLOOKUP/HLOOKUP
Regex extract/replace
Frequency tables
SORT, DEDUPE, FILTER helpers
Map ranges using lookup tables
Rank, flatten, and coalesce values

5️⃣ Misc Utilities (76–100)

Fun, visual, and practical extras:

UUID generator
Slugify text
Random password generator
Emoji rating
Range-based URL encoding
Progress bars
Luhn checksum validator
Hyperlink builders

And the best part?

Every single function works exactly like a native Google Sheets function.

You can call them from formulas with zero setup beyond the initial script installation.

📲 How to Install the 100 Functions in Your Sheet

Open a Google Sheet
Go to Extensions → Apps Script
Delete any placeholder code
Paste the full script file containing the 100 functions
Click Save and refresh the sheet
Use any function immediately (e.g., =PROGRESS_BAR(5, 10, 20))

The functions require no special permissions, because they don’t modify data — they simply calculate and return values.

⭐ Featured Example: The Progress Bar

One of the most popular functions in the set is the visual progress bar.

=PROGRESS_BAR(current, total, width)

Try this formula:

=PROGRESS_BAR(7, 20, 20)

Output:

██████████░░░░░░░░ 35%

This simple but powerful visualization turns Sheets into a lightweight dashboard tool.

🧪 Bonus: Automatic Test Data Generator

To help users test the functions quickly, I also included a sample Apps Script function that populates a demo table with progress-tracking data and formulas.

createProgressBarTestData()

This instantly builds a practical example inside your sheet, ready for experimentation.

🎯 Why Build This Collection?

Google Sheets is used in thousands of different workflows — grading, analytics, finance, project tracking, research, automation, engineering, CRM, and content creation.

But Sheets’ native functions often stop short of what power users need.

So instead of building a one-off function for each requirement, I created a comprehensive and reusable function library that:

Is easy to install
Requires no add-ons
Runs fast
Fills real gaps in the Sheets formula ecosystem
Helps beginners and advanced users alike
Works with ranges, arrays, and dynamic formulas
Encourages better data hygiene, structure, and workflows

This library also serves as a teaching resource for anyone learning Apps Script — showing clean, real, production-ready examples.

📥 Want the Full Code?

If you’d like the complete file as a ZIP, GitHub repo, or formatted documentation, tell me and I’ll generate:

✔ A full GitHub-ready repository
✔ A README with usage examples
✔ A downloadable .gs file
✔ A Sheets template with all functions pre-installed

🚀 Final Thoughts

Google Sheets is more than a spreadsheet.
With Apps Script, it’s a programmable platform.

This 100-function collection unlocks so many workflows:

fast data cleanup
smart date pipelines
richer analytics
cleaner dashboards
automated transformations
custom logic that scales

And because everything runs natively inside Sheets, it works anywhere — desktop, mobile, shared drives, and all Workspace environments.

If you try it out, let me know what functions you’d like added next.

Happy coding — and welcome to the world of supercharged Google Sheets!
