openpyexcel is a fork of openpyxl that has some additional improvements, most notably the ability to write formula values.
openpyexcel is a Python library to read/write Excel 2010 xlsx/xlsm/xltx/xltm files.
It was born from lack of existing library to read/write natively from Python the Office Open XML format.
All kudos to the PHPExcel team as openpyexcel was initially based on PHPExcel.
By default openpyexcel does not guard against quadratic blowup or billion laughs xml attacks. To guard against these attacks install defusedxml.

Sample code:
from openpyexcel import Workbook
wb = Workbook()
# grab the active worksheet
ws = wb.active
# Data can be assigned directly to cells
ws['A1'] = 42
# Rows can also be appended
ws.append([1, 2, 3])
# Python types will automatically be converted
import datetime
ws['A2'] = datetime.datetime.now()
# Save the file
wb.save("sample.xlsx")
