By default content editor web part is not exporting as *.webpart file as other out-of-the-box(OOTB) web parts, it is exported as *.dwp. Basically dwp file is an element XML file which contains configurations as below; [code language="xml"]<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <WebPart xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v2"> <Title>Content Editor</Title> <FrameType>Default</FrameType> ... </WebPart> [/code] But if you exported other web part you can be able to to extract it by converting it to *.cab file.

As first post on this series, though of starting from the elementary basics which are what and why. Briefly post will be focusing on below; What is SharePoint? Why SharePoint? Why need SharePoint rather than moving to developing from the scratch approach?  SharePoint is a platform for developers and professionals where mostly focuses on business content. SharePoint serve as a platform you to design and develop business solutions. Currently SharePoint available as both On-promise (Host SharePoint locally) and subscription based service (Office 365) Main advantage if you moved to develop with SharePoint is its OOTB (Out of The Box) features it contains. As a example, if you develop with other development model you may need to develop and concentrate on authentication, administration, deployment, maintenance and etc. But In the SharePoint it ready made, you need to concentrate on those minimally.

Following describes how to upload attachment to SharePoint 2013 custom list using Angular JS. Note: You can be consumed the JSOM libraries to achieve this, but there is limitation of 1.5 Mb. Better approach would be consuming exposed REST API (SharePoint OOTB) which allowed up to 2 Gb of file to attached using client side scripts i.e. Angular JS. . Here I have used the “Angular File Upload” which capable of doing more tasks other than basic HTML input file control. By consuming this we can attach multiple files either to the list and etc. You can be found the information on how to include this module to your Angular view in following link. Use package manager command to install the scripts. For bower  -->        bower install angular-file-upload For nugget -->       npm install angular-file-upload It requires file buffer array to POST (save) our attachment via REST API, browsers FileReader API is required to use. Its available with almost all common browsers. You need to ensure t
