Google Docs Add-on for Codelab Authoring

[Kamil Hassan]

Hello Everyone!

I've been working on a Google Docs Add-on to make codelab authoring much easier. I'd love help with testing, development, and eventually publishing it to the Workspace Marketplace.

It is a sidebar add-on that provides one-click formatting for all codelab elements

Basically, it turns the complex formatting guide into simple button clicks.

GitHub: https://github.com/Bit-Blazer/codelab-tools/tree/main/gdoc-codelab-addon
(This is part of my maintained fork of the archived googlecodelabs/tools)

I'd love your help with

1. Testing 

- Install the add-on (instructions in README)
- Try authoring a codelab with it

2. Development
- Any edge cases
- Contributions welcome!

3. Publishing Process (I can't figure this out no matter how much I tried - Documentation is Confusing)
- I've never published a Workspace Add-on before

I believe this could save hours for codelab authors. If you're interested in testing, contributing, or just have feedback - please reach out!

Thanks.

P.S. - If anyone has successfully published a Google Docs add-on before, I'd love to chat about the process!

I'm interested
