Add the Tableau Superstore Data App sample - #660
Merged

Conversation
A live-query Tableau data app (viz extension) that rebuilds the Superstore sample dashboards in plain JavaScript with no build step. The Superstore sample data ships inside the workbook (Data/Datasources), so it publishes to any Tableau Cloud site with no datasource to set up. Publishing uses the Tableau plugin and the Tableau MCP.

.xlsthat Tableau installs in My Tableau Repository (3.5 MB).semistandard ./Samples/*/*/*.jsglob reaches, and nothing is added to webpack..twbxis built at publish time.Data/, so until that merges, a.twbxpackaged by the plugin has no data.Testing
