how do you load the project into outlook mac.

[daskabe]

i created a project that uses this template using yo.
observations:

1. generated project does not contains any ReadMe document on how to run/debug/develop using this template.

2. outlook mac does not let me load the mainfest file from local machine. This link just takes me to the MSFT AppSource site which knows nothing about my local add-in. (even after adding the app as described in next point - i cant search and install the plugin from this AppSource site)
   

• i was able to load the manifest file using outlook.live.com. but it does not show up anywhere in outlook.live.com or in my local mac outlook app.
  

3. npm run start fails to load the add-on to outlook mac. if outlook mac needs its own packager per link what is the command to package properly?
   

• if Error: Sideload to the Outlook app is not supported then what are these instructions

wasted developer time today : 2h

Hi @daskabe,

Sorry to hear about your frustrations. Do the instructions in this quick start help? Specifically, the Try it out section should explain how to get projects made in yo office to run in Outlook on Mac.

Let me tag @samantharamon to look into the suggestion of a generated readme.

Hello,
I am facing the same issue when generating the application using yo office with the template "Office Add-in Task Pane project using React framework". I can manually add the add-in using the manifest, but the application does not appear in the toolbar.

When I perform the same steps using the "Office Add-in Task Pane project" template without ReactJS, the add-in correctly appears in Outlook for Map.

Any news ?
