Level 54
I think the biggest concern here is if the csv is very large you'll run the risk of running out of memory unless you maybe put the contents in the DB first.
The basic idea seems doable though.

Show content of csv file in html table, edit and import to db
Hi, I'm trying to build an application using laravel which would 1. Prompt the user to upload a csv file 2. Show the content of the csv file in the webpage as an editable html table 3. Be able to edit each cells of the table 4. Validate each row 5. Import the content to a database.
I know this is probably a lot of work, basically what i'm asking is input on the best way of doing it. There are probably some libraries that exists that i'm not aware of that would save me a lot of time. Any guidance is appreciated.
Thanks
