Introduction
Google Apps Script is one of the powerful automation tools for achieving the automation process. When Google Apps Script can be used for the situation, even when users are away from their computers, automation can continue thanks to cloud computing. Also, Google Apps Script can manage Google Spreadsheet with Google Spreadsheet service and quickly deploy Web Apps with HTML and Javascript with minimal coding. Ref1 Ref2 When Google Spreadsheet is used as a database and the Web Apps are used as the user interface, various web applications can be created. In this report, in order to help understand the key aspects of building web applications with Google Apps Script, I would like to introduce a simple web application. Here, as a sample, the dining reservation system created by Google Apps Script, HTML, and Javascript is implemented as a web application.
