Viewing (office) documents through jit-conversion (demo)

Showcase

Hi All,

I have been using this on a private app for quite a while, but i decided to see if this is something worth turning into a public plugin, a first iteration is visible via:

Document viewer (bugs guaranteed)

What it is: A viewer for Office files that will work on any file/url (also on premise), and if not will offer a chance to download the file instead.

More technically: The viewer tries to perform just-in-time backend rendering - and when complete, stores the preview for later use.

Feel free to create folders/subfolders & upload documents to see how it works.

Interested to hear if this is usefull (because it will take quite some time to make this universal usable).

Definitely useful in niche use-cases or CMS / internal tools.
I can already think of a few Bubble apps I’ve worked with that will find this interesting.
Let me know once this is ready and I’ll be happy to share it with them!

I second its usefulness. I could probably utilize it in an app I am making
