I’ve just had a read of Rencore’s ‘State of SharePoint & Office 365 Customizations’ Report and they’ve discovered 11 approaches to customizing SharePoint. Server-side coding is now bottom which is surprising. I’d expected it to drop but not that fast!!
So my question is … how are you choosing to customize SharePoint in your workplace? Do you have multiple Farms (e.g dev, test, live), if so how are you moving your customizations from one to the other? Which tools and frameworks are you using?
Hey Mark,
Our developments are predominantly on SPFx with angular in the recent days. We do have few Provider hosted apps developed when there are permission restrictions/elevated permission requirements.Â
From a deployment perspective we have automated everything using PnP (combination of both powershell & csom)
Mark, great topic!Â
In connection, I’d also be interested in tools that people use to log or compare site configurations between test and live environments. This way, one can either audit changes beyond what Site collection and list/library audit settings offers.Â

Hi Mark,
For me I use the Application Customizer to change the look and feel of a SharePoint Online Portal. It is the best way for making sure your css and javascripts are loaded at the right time and on top of all it works with modern pages 🙂
