What does Microsoft Use to make Office Online?
-
I'm wondering if anyone knows what framework(s) Microsoft uses to make its online Office apps (Excel, Word, Outlook, etc.)? Especially when it comes to Excel, Word, and Powerpoint, I feel like for them to have almost perfectly consistent rendering between the web and desktop versions there must be code sharing going on. However, I believe the desktop apps are developed with .NET and/or C++, so unless they're using some kind of revolutionary WASM framework that isn't available to the public, I don't see how that would be possible. (They're obviously not using Blazor since the Office web apps came well before Blazor was even an experimental project). Does anyone have any insights?

I loaded up Visio online and the page is Doc.aspx so the main part is c#/asp.net. I'm sure they use JavaScript heavily to keep the page moving and responding well.
