19. Building Office Add-ins
using SharePoint Framework
Vesa Juvonen, Principal Program Manager

20. SPFx + Office Add-ins – the better story together!
Hosting capabilities – You don’t need
to host your add-in on a separate
service. Use the hosting capabilities of
SharePoint for your add-in
Auth/SSO – With SPFx + Office Add-
ins, Auth just works!
Code maintenance – same code
can work across SharePoint, Teams
and Office and access specific
application context
Skills reuse - No need to learn a new
way of developing an Office add-in.
Re-use your SharePoint skills.
Deployment – One way of deploying
an office add-in, Microsoft Teams tabs
and a SharePoint webpart
M365 Developer – Make your
solutions available on SharePoint,
Teams and Office
Governance – Administrators can
manage add-ins version control
and lifecycle from a centralized
location (tenant app catalog)
Cross platform support in
Office using the same SPFx
webpart – WXPO across Win32,
Mac and Web
