office-js add-in in offline mode

I'm trying to develop a new office add-in. Can i send the add-in (or the manifest itself) to the end user, without a server? To clarify, the contents of manifest.xml are:

<DefaultSettings>
    <SourceLocation DefaultValue="https://localhost:3000/taskpane.html"/>
</DefaultSettings>

It is looking for the taskpane on localhost. If i change it to a server (aws for examle), it works.

Could use the add-in without a server, so it works offline?

Sorry, but an Office Web Add-in cannot run offline currently. There has to be a server to host the HTML and JavaScript. We're working on supporting offline operation of add-ins, but we don't know when that will be available.
