Abstract
A method for providing applications for use within collaborative documents includes storing, on a cloud computing service, a collaborative document accessible by a plurality of collaborators and a plurality of modular applications for a document editing application used by the plurality of collaborators to view the collaborative document, where the plurality of modular applications are usable within the collaborative document. The cloud computing service receives a request from a first collaborator in the plurality of collaborators to activate the use of a first modular application in the plurality of modular applications within the collaborative document, and activates the use of the first modular application within the collaborative document, where the first modular application executes on the cloud computing service and each of the plurality of collaborators may use the first modular application within the collaborative document.
