We want to implement the document automation using the Office Add-In functionality. See: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/add-ins/overview/office-add-ins Please note this is NOT a COM, VSTO, or VBA add-in.
This is the newer JavaScript integration, using the Word JavaScript API. See: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/add-ins/reference/overview/word-add-ins-reference-overview
We may also use the Open XML SDK, but not sure. See: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office/open-xml/open-xml-sdk

1. Microsoft Office Add-Ins (Using JavaScript, NOT vba, com, or vsto)
2. The Word Javascript API

4. Developing document automaton
We want to build a document automation system that:
(1) Allows a user to select a court from a drop down, and automatically apply the correct margins, headers, footers, and styles to the Word document;
(2) Allows the user to select the type of court filing the user needs, and the body of the document will update accordingly;
(3) Allows the user to select what lawsuit they are working on, and then pull information from our database via an api to fill in sections of the document; and
(4) Could use conditional logic to decide whether certain sentences, paragraphs, or sections should be included or not included in the document based on the data returned via the api results.
To apply, please answer the following questions. The more detail you can provide the better:
1. What experience do you have with Microsoft Office Javascript Add-Ins?
