[AccessD] MS Access Web Apps Javascript(?) Add-Ins - Was:Re[2]: Access and source control

[Salakhetdinov Shamil]

 Hi Gustav --

Yes, it could be useful. Maybe in the middle of this February I'll find some time to study it too.

Here is an additional link which, in my opinion, could be useful: http://dev.office.com/fabric

Thank you.

>>Hi Shamil
>>
>>Yes, you can do ”something” with the Access Web Apps. However, I think (not sure, just my impression) it is targeted superuser types of applications.
>>
>>If you look at the page for Office add-ins it doesn’t mention Access with a single Word, so I don’t know how to read that article you link to at SO. Like you, I see no mention of Access in VS2015 SP1 for Office apps, so I guess they have been left in the dark.

>>Hi Gustav --

>>Thank your your reply. Yes, I also haven't had any new MS Access apps developed here for 10+ years.

>>>>> Some ask for ”web solutions”
>>It looks like using VS 2015 "dumb" MS Access Web Apps can be extended/enhanced by using Office365/SharePoint JavaScript(?) Add-ins by so making them real candidates for modern "web solutions" - here is a set of the links:

>>From <  https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/fp123530.aspx > But I must note that I haven't yet made any Add-Ins for MS Access Web Apps - I have tried by I have failed to follow MSDN work-through as my VS2015 setup seems to be missing Office Add-Ins templates, and I currently do not know where from to get them installed if that possible at all for VS 2015 Professional edition.
