Are you a developer that is just getting started trying to customize SharePoint and Teams and don't know where to start? In this introductory level session we will look at how to get started using the SharePoint Framework (SPFx), what it is good for (and what it isn't). We will learn about setting up a development environment, creating a new project, deploying and debugging. WE will look at real examples build from my experience as an M365 consultant. You will leave with a solid understanding of the basics of the SharePoint Framework and resources you can use at home to keep the learning going.
