To my understanding the only way to develop Microsoft Word Add-ins on Mac is the use the Office.js framework and develop the add-in using the taskpane. I recently ran across EndNote X9 which I was able to download on my mac and use in Word. However, EndNote pops up in the tool bar,
This confused me, because I thought the only way to develop Add-ins in this format was to use VSTO, which is only compatible with Windows. Does anyone know how EndNote created this add-in for Mac?
#CindyMeister's comment is correct. You can use the add-in's manifest to define custom ribbon tabs and buttons. The place to start in the documentation is Add-in Commands.

I want to start programming a new application in C# oder VB with
Visual Studio Code.
Is it possible to program a GUI for my app in VS-Code and which libraries to use?
Visual Studio Code does not provide UI designing by itself. I have not seen any suitable extension to convert UI design into code, for VS-Code. How ever I think this is a good discussion (How can I develop cross-platform GUI application using .Net Core) about your second question:
Is it possible to program a GUI for my app in VS-Code and which
libraries to use
The C# support in VS Code is optimized for cross-platform .NET Core development. And you can't build applications like Winforms, WPF or Silverlight on .Net Core. They're gone!
I am currently developing a mobile app using ionic..but i was wondering of its possible to develop an ionic app using visual studio community 2015.I have attempted coding in visual studio using ionic in VS,but it seems like the js scripts used in regular web apps are not recognized by ionic.And i dont like Telerik and Kendo UI because the app behaves in a sticky manner.I am trying to develop a cross platform app that behaves and looks as native as possible..Please guide me on how to go about this?
Visual Studio is one of the best ways to developer hybrid mobile apps with Ionic. Frankly I prefer to use Visual Studio Code. It's a lightweight code editor that's fast and optimized for ASP.NET and Node.js development.

Or try to better explain your problem so we can help.
You can try WebStorm it is the best one for developing cross platform.
you can integrate it with any plugin. it is full of tools for javaScript technologies with built in terminal.
I'm not a new developer but I am new to Xamarin. I'm hoping someone can clue me into how to best use Xamarin from a high-level perspective. I know they offer some great tools but I'm assuming (1) I will still need a Mac (2) I will still need an Apple Developer account.
Are these assumptions correct? Is it possible to use Xamarin and still deploy to iPhone WITHOUT a Mac machine (ie all on a PC)?
Yes. You need a Mac for iOS development. You can develop and debug from a Windows computer but the build itself needs to be done on a Mac computer (as it requires, among other things, linking with Apple's libraries);
You need an Apple developer account to be able to provision and deploy to iOS devices. Otherwise you'll be limited to the iOS simulator.
Another thing to consider is that in order to see what your UI will look like while developing, and in order to have drag/drop development for your UI, you need to be using a MAC, not a PC. There is no 'Design View' for iOS apps in the Visual Studio pluggin, or in the Windows version of the Xamarin Studio. The Xamarin Studio on a MAC just navigates you into the XCode IDE and lets you do your drag/drop development in there.
I want to use the titanium for developing the iphone applications.Mainly how to develop the apps using titanium.What is the editor for write the code.And what are the adv antages of titanium compared to ios.please tell me
Well Titanium comes with Aptana as it's standard code-editor. It's a pretty good editor, has good syntax highlighting and auto-completion.
There are currently two versions: Aptana Studio (standalone) and Titanium Studio which includes Aptana Studio + the Titanium files. You may want to get the second one.
The Advantages of using Titanium are clearly Portability and ease of use. You can port your application to various Mobile Platforms pretty fast and only need some knowledge of HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
The Disadvantages are that you'll have a bunch of constraints in your development and you may not be able to have access to the full native functionality of the iOS environment.
i want to develop one desktop application using c# sql lite, this application i want to submit this app to Apple store in case of iphone/ likewise for Android. please let me know if it is feasible to do, if so please let me know the steps that need to be incorporated in order to achieve this.
No. You can't do this directly.
You need third party compilers to run C# code on iPhone (MonoTouch) or Android (MonoDroid).
Do keep in mind that, even if you use MonoTouch (or MonoDroid) you won't be using Windows Forms, WPF or any other Windows based GUI framework. You will be using different frameworks to support Apple and Google's platform capabilities. So if you were thinking to run existing C# applications on iPhone or Android, it won't be possible.
