velut is my Latin vocabulary website, which uses a MongoDB database with two collections (“words” and “lemmata”). But I generate and store all the data for it in a private Excel file. To get my Excel data into MongoDB, I copy an entire table (either “words” or “lemmata”) into the field above, generate the Json, copy it into (or save it as) a .json file on my computer, then run a mongoimport command to replace my MongoDB data with the new Json.
