SharePoint 2016 currently offer 2 development models:
- SharePoint Farm & Sandboxed Solutions: This development model is introduced in SharePoint 2007 and allows developers to deploy full-trusted server side code.
- SharePoint Apps/Add-ins: This development model is introduced in SharePoint 2013 and relies on client-side or remote development. This model is currently recommend by Microsoft.
This course covers the SharePoint Farm & Sandboxed Solutions development model. Developers interested in the SharePoint App or Add-in model should follow course USP16AP. Participants of this course will learn from a developer's perspective how to manipulate, customize and extend the different parts of their SharePoint environment. They will learn how to build and deploy their own solutions on top of SharePoint 2016 using Visual Studio.
This course is targeting .NET developers without any prior SharePoint 2016 development skills who want to develop for SharePoint Server 2016. Participants need to have a solid understanding of the .NET platform and have built .NET applications using either C# or VB.NET, preferable within ASP.NET. Since this course will not explain all the out-of-the-box features of SharePoint 2016, knowing your way around SharePoint 2016 from an end-user perspective is recommended.
