Inspiration

SPFx (SharePoint Framework) webparts are cool and look great - but they are only available for SharePoint Online. Many of our customers are using SharePoint 2016 (or even older versions) and are not able to use the modern team sites. Why not bring SPFx to SharePoint on premises.

What it does

Our Modern Webparts for SharePoint on premises are offering new ways to integrate JavaScript build web parts in on premises environments. Even SPFx can be used in SharePoint 2013 or 2016 by now.

How we built it

  1. We had a look what's behind the SharePoint Framework
  2. We tried to extract the SPFx webpart itself - the bare minimum
  3. we built the wrappers for all available platforms and put into it what's possible

Challenges we ran into

We dealt with SharePoint!

Accomplishments that we're proud of

SPFx is now available on-premises and all developers will be able to experience the lightweight development of modern javascript webparts and it's benefits.

Thank you for our first hackathon, it was a great experience and thx again for the support from the peers.
