Useful Tips of Getting Started With SharePoint

SharePoint is one of the most popular Microsoft technologies that

allow companies to host their internet WebPages.

For developing any SharePoint application, developers need to use

Microsoft Visual Studio. The SharePoint app is stored in a SharePoint Server

and so it is compulsory to have Visual Studio for building SharePoint based

application successfully.

The most important thing to remember for any developer while

developing an application using SharePoint is – to consider SharePoint as a

Development platform and not as a Product. As a software application, it

has many features and plug-ins that may confuse any developer. Usually

they make a mistake by assuming that SharePoint will deliver them

whatever they desire without customization. But deployment of an app may

go wrong if additional modules are used without considering the business

case, requirements, and other things.

Five most important tips that should be considered while SharePoint

App Development are -

1] While writing codes for the app building, always good pattern

should be used, provided by Microsoft Visual Studio that delivers a secure,

robust and efficient coding. Microsoft provides some sample code patterns

that can be used in SharePoint projects by developers.

2] Testing of code should be done as many times as it is possible.

Testing it again and again can help developer to reduce or even remove

some unnecessary codes from the project, making it more robust.

3] It is always advisable to use the Developers Dashboard in the

applications as it provides information about the project details. This feature

is available in SharePoint 2010.

4] To get SharePoint implementation correct, it is important to start

with it by disabling all the features. Always the implementation should be

breached into different parts, for example – Start with simply replacing the

existing intranet, then add document management, add forms

management, add business processes and workflow management, later

start sharing BI dashboard and enterprise reports, and so on.

5] At the time of creating custom app page in SharePoint as a part of

Visual Studio, the security is very important as only right people should be

allowed to use it. Any user can open that page if they just type the link in the

browser, and so you can set certain permissions on the site by which that

link is not shown to people who are not using that page.

Developers consider it as a powerful Content Management platform

with security, workflow, and document management and also it is fully

customizable for all internal web capabilities.
