Packing an Outlook Add ins created with Yeoman

Question

I've created an Outlook add ins using Yeoman not Visual Studio and now I want to submit it to the office store.

The add-ins is targeting Outlook Desktop and Outlook 365.

In the documentation there's an example about packing the add ins using Visual Studio 2015. Here's the link

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/add-ins/publish/package-your-add-in-using-visual-studio

Is there any tutorial about packing the add ins when it is created with Yeoman?

Also, once I've packed it to which host it should be submitted? To Azure.com? May I host the Add ins in my own server?

Answer 1

There isn't a "package", only a single XML Manifest file. The Store only hosts/provides the manifest. Where you host the actual application/add-in is up to you (assuming it is secured/HTTPS).

When you submit your add-in to the store, the only assets you supply are the manifest and screenshots.
