Office Extensibility exists for a single, simple purpose: make Office more useful by unleashing the creativity of developers to craft purpose-driven, relevant experiences for their users. Microsoft is excited about pushing forward their vision of new and better ways for users to be productive.

Combining that with the creativity and vision of third-party developers from around the world and companies of all sizes, the possibilities are endless.
