Inside the volatile world of a Google Document

10 years ago, when i was researching my first book on Apps Script, Going Gas – from VBA to Apps Script (yes it’s pretty out of date now), I had to dig into the internal structure of a Word Document, so I could figure out how VBA manipulates document elements. It provided the foundation to understanding the mapping between VBA/Word and Apps Script/Google Docs.
I was fascinated by how Word documents maintains coherence despite being composed of strings of character groups and styling instructions, all organized by internal indices, and then how Google Docs approaches this potential spaghetti.
Here we go again, digging into document organization – this time as research for my gas-fakes project, which aims to emulate all of Apps Script on Node.

Thank you Bruce for so many contributions.

Google promised to be different. Today we can see that these big techs are no different.
Their only goal is power.
