A bunch of tiny pjmlp's running around in a hamster wheel providing electricity maybe? Are you suggesting the post I linked above from someone claiming to be an engineer on Office is inaccurate? It may be well be, but it sounds more plausible and supportable than whatever question it is you seem to be posing. If you have evidence to suggest that Office365 is written in C# these days I'd like to see it please, because I have read on more than one occasion over the last 10 years that MS had attempted this and given up.

I was referrring to Office 365 on Azure, which happens to run on the browser in case you missed it. Quoting your favourite engineer "The desktop app’s are fully native".

  So you are talking about "Office 365 Mobile" and/or "Office 365 Online". There is also "Office 365 Desktop" which is what I think you'll find most large corporations that have migrated from Office 2016 Desktop apps are using. https://www.howtogeek.com/334597/whats-the-difference-between-microsoft-offices-desktop-web-and-mobile-apps/ https://www.howtogeek.com/334597/whats-the-difference-betwee... Office 365 Mobile/Online are much cut down, more comparable from Google Docs from the sounds of it, and hardly a 1:1 replacement for the Desktop apps. Which are still C/C++. In addition, if you have any hard evidence that the majority of the Office Mobile/Online web apps are written in C# I would like to see that, because I can't seem to find any. Thankyou.

      I have not made that assertion at all, not even implicitly. Therefore there is nothing to prove. You still have an explicit outstanding assertion that they are written in C# though, once we figured out which of the three versions you were actually talking about (ie: it's the versions that almost nobody uses) so let's see it.

        Quite the contrary, I explicitly mentioned "I was referrring to Office 365 on Azure, which happens to run on the browser in case you missed it.", but I guess you rather push this little number of your's, therefore there is nothing to prove.

        First message: > How do you think Office 365 works? Second message: > I was referrring to Office 365 on Azure Everyone can see it, its there and black and white. Having received your clarification that you meant "mobile or online" edition, I asked you to provide evidence it's written in C# which is apparently your claim, which you still haven't done. I haven't asserted that it's still written in C or C++, it could be assembled with spit and paper clips for all I know. So enlighten us, as per your claim, if you can. I'm genuinely interested.

Whoa, easy with the personal attack there.
