Installation

Note: installation from the Microsoft Marketplace will be possible once the add-in is published to the web. For now you need to manually install the add-in as described below.

1. Clone this repo using Git.
2. Open a Node.js command prompt in the root folder of the project.
3. Run npm install to install all dependencies.
4. Run export HTTPS=true && npm start to start the project. A browser window opens showing a partial UI.
5. To see the full UI, open Word and sideload the manifest.

cp cicero-word-add-in.xml /Users/<NAME>/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.Word/Data/Documents/wef/

If the wef folder does not exist you need to create it.
