Introduction to SharePoint Framework| Rise of new SP development model

Introduction to SharePoint Framework


  • SharePoint Framework for client-side development, easy integration with the Microsoft Graph and support for open source tooling. It's purely concentrated on integration of modern UX(User Experience) with SharePoint.

  • As for announcements, this available since 3rd quarter of 2016

  • Allow developers to make use of the latest JavaScript frameworks like React and Angular. This opens doors towards open source development on SharePoint rather than sticking on to Windows and Visual studio.

  • provides dramatically better experiences, performance, mobile support and more while broadening SharePoint developer ecosystem from .NET and beyond

  • Available for existing SharePoint sites and can be include client side web parts into SharePoint pages.

  • This introduces new page experience including page structure.



What includes in SharePoint Framework?


  • Capable of including enterprise mobility..responsive and also scale well with any device

  • Deep customization is highly capable..since more tooling and libraries can be used

  • Expands potential of SharePoint and Microsoft Graph API

  • Enabled for both cloud (O365) or on on-premise



Why another model?


  • Despite the different forms of add-ins the model has some limitations, one of which is the use of iframes for integrating add-ins on pages.

  • Modern SharePoint UX along with all its components, uses responsive web design

  • Its another tool for your toolbox, its upto you to pick the best for your job

  • Modern team sites look great and offer improved user experience in the mobile-first world



When you should use SharePoint Framework?

whenever you want to extend the capabilities of the modern team sites, solutions based on the SharePoint Framework are your only option

It is the only SharePoint development model that works with modern SharePoint sites.



Its backward compatible (works well in both modern and classic)

For example, if you were to build a Web Part that interacts with the Microsoft Graph, you could build a 100% client-side solution using Angular, ADAL JS and OAuth implicit flow.

Turn off/ Hide Details panel/ Information Panel on modern SharePoint lists

Not always we require to show changes done by other which is a mandatory feature in SharePoint online.  What is details pane (aka. Information Pane)? Detail pane/ Information shows information regarding the document if you selected a one or its showing recent changes within a list or library. Follow link to Microsoft documentation about details pane. Bad news: Until Microsoft listen to User Voice , there is no straightforward way to enable disable this even you don't want. Good news: We could write a SharePoint framework extension to hack styles until Microsoft give us a permanent solution. How?

There is no straight forward method or Microsoft Flow action  to eliminate values in a collection like Microsft Excel (as of March 2019). This little hack will help you to eliminate/ remove duplicates and create a collection of unique values. Sample scenario: Need to send daily summarized notification to assigned approved with pending approval items. Sample workflow: Initialize an array Iterate collection of data and append items that are not there in the filtered array Side note: This won't be an option to consider if you too concerned about the performance of the workflow but for the time being its an option to consider.
