I can't download a MS Word example from

Description:

I can't download the sample "open in word" link. My MS Word applications starts, but it then says "requested information can't be downloaded."

Is there a place where I can download a sample .doc file, click "enable editing" and "Trust the add-in" and get started with script-lab for windows 10? (I have Microsoft 365 installed.) When using script-lab I don't have to bother downloading and setting up node, npm or any other software environment, that is a huge plus as I am trying to share with others using script-lab.

Did you mean you want to share a doc to others, and when they open the doc, it will install ScriptLab automatically?

I meant if they have ScriptLab installed then sharing such a document should 'carry' my add-in with it.

Since my post I have learned a bit more and I am sharing my add in (still for testing) with a manifest.xml and sharing the code for the Add-in from a remote web server. this works, but I had though developing and sharing would be easier by Scriptlab, but it is not clear if Scriptlab can support complex Add-in with many HTML, CSS and JS files over many folders.

This is a cool idea. However, I this scenario is beyond the design goals of Script Lab which is to provide an easy way for people to try out office.js.
