SHAREPOINT COMMUNITY NEWSLETTER - Prepare your Toolbox for SPFx

Hi everyone,

Welcome to this weeks SharePoint Community newsletter!!

I wanted to share with you a noteworthy new whitepaper by John Liu, MVP Office Server and Services, and his colleague Bart Bouwhuis, fellow SharePoint consultant:

Preparing your Toolbox for the SharePoint Framework with Angular, Webpack and Kendo UI

The future of SharePoint development and customization – starting now, by the way – is the SharePoint Framework (SPFx), a client-side based framework that allows JavaScript customizations on top of SharePoint Online/Office 365.

This whitepaper, though, isn't just about SPFx. It is about SharePoint as a platform with AngularJS and WebPack, and having those pieces ready and aligned for SPFx. It is about a stable set of core tools that works well together. It is about a set of tools that runs today on SharePoint 2016, SharePoint 2013 and SharePoint Online. You can already use these, without having to wait for SharePoint Framework's official release.

So download this whitepaper to:

• See a great set of tools in action
• Learn how to build a practical SharePoint business application using modern web technology
• Get excited about the new SharePoint Framework and related web stack technologies

In the words of the authors:

"The time to jump in is always now (or as soon as you can). We present two months of work representing our hardest effort to promote modern web technologies and SharePoint as a platform.

Please download our whitepaper - Preparing Your Toolbox for the SharePoint Framework with Angular, Webpack and Kendo UI, compare it to what you guys use and let us know what you like or love."

Thats all for this week folks, until next week, happy SharePointing!

Thanks

Fraser
