In buying this e-book through LeanPub (where I’m also discounting it for the "early readers"), you are entitled to free updates to the book. I would rather ship an early version of the book, addressing the most common questions and issues that I see folks struggling with, and then keep iterating on it from there. Since writing the book is strictly my "moonlighting" activity – my day-job is to be a developer on Office.js APIs, not a technical writer – it will take a good long while before I am actually done with all the content I want to write about. Note that this book is published using a "lean" methodology – publishing early, and publishing often. The subsequent chapters will expand upon these topics, covering more advanced scenarios, and offering debugging advice, tips, FAQs, and so forth. This book will begin by address the core concepts to help you get over the initial learning curve, and get started on using the APIs. In spirit, the new Office.js APIs are reasonably similar to their VBA/VSTO counterparts, but with the notable difference of being async – which brings with it a new set of concepts and best practices. These APIs are cross-platform, are built on a modern web framework, and offer some of the same powerful functionality that previously was only available on the Desktop. Office 2016 has seen a major re-birth of the API model, with hundreds of new APIs created for Excel and Word and OneNote.

This book is about creating Office Add-ins – and in particular, about the new Office 2016 wave of Office.js APIs.
