Univer Node.js Backend

Guide for running Univer in Node.js environments without a browser. Use this for headless spreadsheet processing, automated report generation, server-side formula calculation, and batch data manipulation.

Compatibility: This skill is written for Univer v0.21.x / Univer Pro v0.20.x. Node.js support is isomorphic with browser support per the Univer architecture.

Prerequisites: Familiarity with the univer-integrate skill (base plugin architecture, Facade API, plugin registration order) is assumed. This skill only covers Node.js-specific differences.
