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

Sun Jan 24 13:44:25 CST 2016

 Hi Gustav --

<<<
When I browse the site and study the examples … this is sooo powerful. And stylish.
It would take months to create just parts of this vast collection.

Yes. Do you know about Google's "Material Design"
https://www.google.com/design/spec/material-design/introduction.html#  

? 

The Google's "Material Design" and Microsoft Office UI Fabric seems to be competing technologies - compare:

Google's "Material Design" - Goals: ...  Develop a single underlying system that allows for a unified experience across platforms and device sizes. Mobile precepts are fundamental, but touch, voice, mouse, and keyboard are all ﬁrst-class input methods."

Microsoft Office UI Fabric: "Fabric is a responsive, mobile-first collection of styles and tools designed to make it quick and simple for you to create web experiences using the Office Design Language."

Thank you.

>>Hi Gustav --
>>
>>I have just found - here is the info on the  "Latest Microsoft Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2015" (  http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudio/archive/2015/11/23/latest-microsoft-office-developer-tools-for-visual-studio-2015.aspx ) and this info/article has the link to setup these tools:  http://aka.ms/GetLatestOfficeDevTools
>>
>>Here is the info on supported add-in types and supported host application including MS Access Web apps (  https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/fp142185.aspx ).
>>
>>It looks like with introduction of this type of Office Add-Ins (with JavaScript API for Office / office.js) MS Access web apps can be made powerful, "smart" and user-friendly... IOW MS Access web apps with latest Office Add-Ins seems to be good candidates for "web solutions" as you mentioned them.

>>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:
>>>
>>>Create add-ins for Access web apps
>>>From <  https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn605890.aspx >
>>>Office 365: Bind and manipulate data in a SharePoint Access app
>>>From <  https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/officeapps/Office-365-Bind-and-4876274e >
>>>Create JavaScript web apps using CORS to access Office 365 APIs
>>>From <  https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/office365/howto/create-web-apps-using-cors-to-access-files-in-office-365 >
>>>See also:
>>>Set up an add-in catalog on SharePoint
>>>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.
