[Vuejs]-Adding Vuetify package to Excel addin made with VueJS framework

I have uploaded an example repo with a Vue Excel addin using Vuetify:

If you get this far its time to sideload the app in Excel.

NOTE: the sample app in my repo is called “Graph API”

Recently got Vuetify working within an Excel Addin in Windows.

  • Are you on a Windows box?
  • Can you browse to your app i.e. http://localhost:3000 successfully?
  • Can you browse to your app i.e. http://localhost:3000 successfully within IE11?
  • Do you see any errors in your browser dev tools console?
  • What does “the add-in is not working” mean, any more specifics about the problem?

Issue I had was related to Vuetify IE11 compatibility, specifically…

Vuetify utilizes features of ES2015/2017 that require the need to use polyfills for Internet Explorer 11

As far as I am aware Excel addins require IE11 i.e. Office for Windows as at both 2013 and 2016 use an embedded IE11 instance to host add-ins.

Internet Explorer 11 or later, which must be installed but doesn’t have to be the default browser. To support Office Add-ins, the Office client that acts as host uses browser components that are part of Internet Explorer 11 or later.
