It All Adds Up

This is the start of a developer series for the Office 12 UI ...

"Microsoft Office is more than a suite of applications. It's also an important development platform.

A change as big as the new Office 12 user interface has implications for developers. There are thousands of publicly available add-ins written to take advantage of Office. Many companies have also written their own suite of internal add-ins which extend Office to impressively integrate into their business systems.

The good news is that Office 12 provides an enormous opportunity for add-in developers. We've introduced a new model for extending the Office interface code-named RibbonX, which addresses directly many of the toughest issues facing Office UI developers today. Based on a declarative, XML-based model, RibbonX unlocks much of the power of the new UI in a straightforward way, whether you write in C#, Visual Basic.NET, C++, or VBA."   continued ...   (Via Jensen Harris)
