Many months ago I shared my plan to publish a new course on SharePoint Framework for developers. Like so many new ventures, I hit a few speed bumps along the way, both technical and in my personal life that delayed things longer than I originally planned… but finally…the next phase of Mastering the SharePoint Framework is ready!
In March 2017, I released a free 10-day email course on the SharePoint Framework Development Toolchain soon to be followed by the first three chapters of my course in the Mastering the SharePoint Framework - Starter Bundle for free! These two courses were just the start of a bigger plan…the next step of which I’m announcing today!
Mastering the SharePoint Framework - Pre-Release on September 19!
Two weeks from today, on Tuesday, September 19, 2017, the Fundamentals & Ultimate Bundles of Mastering the SharePoint Framework will be available for pre-release purchase! This will include about 10 chapters (over 50%) of the Fundamentals Bundle content.
More Content Released Every Few Weeks
Every few weeks following the initial pre-release you can expect to see additional chapters made available, including content dedicated to the Ultimate Bundle, which will contain over 20 chapters on advanced topics designed to make you not just a productive developer, but a master of the SharePoint Framework! The best news about this? If you buy the pre-release of either the Fundamentals or Ultimate Bundle, you will automatically get access to the new chapters of the bundle you purchased as they are released…at no additional cost to you!
Bundle Contents & Features
The Mastering the SharePoint Framework course is available in three bundles:
- Starter: Released in March 2017, this free bundle is still available today and contains three chapters that introduce the course, the SharePoint Framework and how to get your development environment set up.
- Fundamentals: If you need to understand the core parts of being productive with the SharePoint Framework, this bundle is for you. Packed with nearly 20 chapters, you will learn how to build client-side web parts, use React, AngularJS, Knockout, jQuery and the Office UI Fabric to customize your SharePoint deployment.
- Ultimate: For developers who are looking to become a master of all things related to the SharePoint Framework, this is the bundle for you! This bundle will contain over 20 additional chapters that will help you master the SharePoint Framework. Learn how to collaborate with a team of developers, implement robust test processes, implement a CI / CD process, measure and analyze the usage of your customizations and more! In addition, subscribers of the Ultimate bundle will receive invitations to bi-weekly office hours with me to get input and answers on your current challenges. The chapters specific to this bundle will not be available on September 19th, but when you purchase the Ultimate Bundle, you will get all of the available chapters for the Starter and Fundamentals Bundles so you don’t have to wait to start learning!
In case it isn’t clear, the Fundamentals Bundle includes the Starter Bundle while the Ultimate Bundle includes all three.
All courses include evergreen content that will be refreshed and updated as Microsoft releases new features, fixes, and capabilities to the SharePoint Framework!
