PowerPoint for Web

 Hi,


Just wondering if PowerPoint for Web can be used to show presentations.


It seems that EasyWorship already uses the Edge HTML WebView2 plugin (used to be Internet Explorer WebView until a few versions ago), and it seems that YouTube Videos are embedded using WebView.


I have also read on the Microsoft site that the same API's that are used to control PowerPoint apps are available for the web versions - see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/javascript/api/requirement-sets/powerpoint/powerpoint-api-requirement-sets?view=common-js-preview


This could save a lot of money for churches that can't afford to be constantly paying for Office 365, as the free version of PowerPoint from the web that replaced the old PowerPoint Viewer could be used.

It is not supported but you could use the EW Presentation editor and bypass using PowerPoint altogether.
