Hi,
The company I work for, big but first time SharePoint (and Microsoft) user, will roll out SharePoint 2013. (No prior versions, so no migrations – which is already a plus me thinks 😉 )
I’m the designated SharePoint solution architect, developer (one of) etc… you name it…. ‘To Be’. It’s clear I’m a complete novice right now.
My question : How do I set up a development environment for SharePoint 2013 ?
I’m not talking hardware, nor Windows server or MS SQL servers or SharePoint itself – but the development tools.
I have an extensive experience with Java development for 15 years, so I know about continuous build, continuous integration, unit testing, dashboards, auto deploys, versioning, …………
We want the same for our SharePoint dev env
So what do I need
– Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate ?
– Team Foundation Server ?
– ……..
All help really really appreciated
Hi Danny,
I have no experince with 2013 but use a combination of the front end & SharePoint developer to do all my dev work with SP2010 – SP Dev is free so thats always a good start. I know you can do alot of customisation with Visual Studio but hopefully one of the community members with experience in that area will be able to advise you better.
Happy developing 🙂
