Bed level visualization without octoprint plugin?

Bed level visualization without octoprint plugin?

Using the no springs method with nylock nuts
https://github.com/PrusaOwners/prusaowners/wiki/Bed_Leveling_without_Wave_Springs
there was posted some time ago where the G-81 results could be dumped into a linked webpage that would generate the heat map but I can't seem to find this "no Octoprint method" other than some folks just say use Excel so if someone could post that webpage it would be helpful as I have neither octoprint or excel.

not a big fan of nyloc method, seemed kinda hacky.

Thanks Curtis, I don't see another way to fix printing close to all the edges of the build plate. I have a bunch of full plate sized prints to do this weekend and if I have good first layer on one side I am air printing on the other edge even with the max correction dial in on each edge.

Whilst bed level correction is limited to +-50 microns. There is a gcode which enabkes values +80 to-80
