Show HN: DOCX template populator tool

Do you have a template document that stays mostly the same for each instance? For example an Employment Agreement stays mostly the same text for each employee.

Are you tired of scrolling trough your Microsoft Word template and manually changing placeholders for each instance of final document?

Why not try this tool? Upload docx template. Fill the web form and download complete documents!

Suggestions are welcome.

Word has had mail merge for about 40 years. Why not use the native feature instead?

Not the OP, but IIRC Google Docs has no support for this feature.

You can do it with Apps Script, but yes there's no click-a-button feature like Word has.

Yeah that is true. But API could still be used to programmatically generate documents.

Anyways I am planing to implement series of useful tools to be hosted on this domain. This was the first project. It was kinda low hanging fruit since I already Implemented something similar in the past.

It was also learning experience since that is my first completely by myself deployed non static web page.
