These packages provide functionality which can be used to perform tasks related to Office Add-ins. The packages export functions which can be imported and used in Node scripts. Many of the packages also provide a command-line interface (CLI), allowing them to be used directly from a Command Prompt / Terminal window.
The Yo Office templates provide a starting point for developing an Office Add-in. These scripts are used in the templates to provide for basic developer tasks such as debugging.
Developers may have other workflows with different requirements and tooling. Our goal is for the these packages to serve as building blocks which can be adapted as needed. We encourage feedback and contributions from the community.
The Excel Custom Functions project provides an example of how these packages may be used.
