3. Agenda
• The Road Ahead for
SharePoint Development
• About Widgets
• About TypeScript
• TypeScript Widgets Today
• TypeScript Widgets in
SharePoint Framework
• Resources
4. A Geological View of SharePoint
ASP.NET WebForms
ASP.NET AJAX, Scripting On Demand
SharePoint Page Models
XSLT
Custom Actions (JavaScript)
JSLink, Display Templates
Add-in Model
5. • A completely new SharePoint UI for Office 365 and SharePoint
2016
• New client-side page model
• Modern and responsive – allows “mobile first” development for
SharePoint
• Phase in over time
• Client-side web parts work on both classic and client-side pages
(Check out O365 blogs to try the Canvas)
• Mix classic and client-side pages in a SharePoint site
SharePoint Framework: A Clean Slate
6. Microsoft is modernizing SharePoint
Over the next few years, Microsoft will change the entire
SharePoint user experience to meet the needs of a modern,
mobile workforce.

Q: What do they have in common?
A: HTML and JavaScript
9. Widgets to the rescue!
• Commonly used on the Internet called
”Web Widgets”, ”Plugins”, ”Embeds”, etc.
• It’s just a clever piece of HTML and
Javascript that acts like a web part
• Why not use the same pattern in
SharePoint?
10. Widgets to the rescue!

4. Tabbed Calendars/Discussions
5. Twitter Feed
12. What makes a good widget?
1
ISOLATED – so they won’t interfere with other
widgets or the rest of the page
Can you run multiple copies of the widget on a page?
2
EFFICIENT – so they load quickly Does the page get noticeably slower as you add
widgets?
3
SELF-CONTAINED – so they’re easy to reuse Does the widget work without special page elements
such as element ID’s, scripts, and CSS references?
4
MODERN – so they’re easier to write and maintain Is the widget written in a modern JavaScript
framework such as AngularJS or Knockout?
13. Widget Wrangler
• Small open source
JavaScript Framework
• No dependencies on
any other scripts or
frameworks
• Works with popular JS
frameworks (Angular,
Knockout, jQuery,
etc.)
• Minimizes impact on
the overall page when
several instances are
present
<div>
<div ng-controller="main as vm">
<h1>Hello{{vm.space()}}{{vm.name}}!</h1>
Who should I say hello to?
<input type="text" ng-model="vm.name" />
</div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="pnp-ww.js“
ww-appName="HelloApp“
ww-appType="Angular“
ww-appScripts=
'[{"src": “~/angular.min.js", "priority":0},
{"src": “~/script.js", "priority":1}]'>
</script>
</div>
AngularJS Sample
16. Why Typescript?
1. Static type checking catches errors earlier
2. Intellisense
3. Use ES6 features in ES3, ES5 (or at least get compatibility checking)
4. Class structure familiar to .NET programmers
5. Prepare for AngularJS 2.0
let x = 5;
for (let x=1; x<10; x++) {
console.log (‘x is ‘ + x.toString());
}
console.log (‘In the end, x is ‘ +
x.toString());
var x = -1;
for (var x_1 = 1; x_1 < 10; x_1++) {
console.log("x is " + x_1.toString());
}
console.log("In the end, x is " +
x.toString()); // -1
17. Setup steps:
• Install VS Code
• Install Node (https://nodejs.org/en/download)
• npm install –g typescript
• Ensure no old versions of tsc are on your path; VS
adds:
C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft
SDKsTypeScript1.0
• In VS Code create tsconfig.json in the root of your
folder
{
"compilerOptions": {
"target": "es5“,
"sourceMap": true
}
}
• Use Ctrl+Shift+B to build – first time click the
error to define a default task runner
Edit task runner and un-comment the 2nd
example in the default
• npm install –g http-server
(In a command prompt, run http-server and
browse to http://localhost:8080/)
VS Code Environment
18. Setup steps:
• Install Visual Studio
• For VS2012 or 2013, install TypeScript
extension
• Build and debug the usual way

19. (1) Type Annotations
var myString: string = ‘Hello, world';
var myNum : number = 123;
var myAny : any = "Hello";
myString = <number>myAny;
var myDate: Date = new Date;
var myElement: HTMLElement = document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0];
var myFunc : (x:number) => number =
function(x:number) : number { return x+1; }
var myPeople: {firstName: string, lastName: string}[] =
[
{ firstName: “Alice", lastName: “Grapes" },
{ firstName: “Bob", lastName: “German" }
]

20. (2) ES6 Compatibility
var myFunc : (nx:number) => number =
(n:number) => {
return n+1;
}
let x:number = 1;
if (true) { let x:number = 100; }
if (x === 1) { alert ('It worked!') }
var target: string = ‘world';
var greeting: string = `Hello, ${target}’;

21. (3) Classes and Interfaces
interface IPerson {
getName(): string;
}
class Person implements IPerson {
private firstName: string;
private lastName: string;
constructor (firstName: string, lastName:string) {
this.firstName = firstName;
this.lastName = lastName;
}
getName() { return this.firstName + " " + this.lastName; }
}
var me: IPerson = new Person("Bob", "German");
var result = me.getName();

22. (4) Typescript Definitions
var oldStuff = oldStuff || {};
oldStuff.getMessage = function() {
var time = (new Date()).getHours();
var message = "Good Day"
if (time < 12) {
message = "Good Morning"
} else if (time <18) {
message = "Good Afternoon"
} else {
message = "Good Evening"
}
return message;
};
interface IMessageGiver {
getMessage: () => string
}
declare var oldStuff: IMessageGiver;
var result:string = oldStuff.getMessage();
document.getElementById('output').innerHTML = result;
myCode.ts
(TypeScript code wants to call legacy JavaScript)
oldStuff.js
(legacy JavaScript)
oldStuff.d.ts

Typescript Widgets Today
• Provisioning with PowerShell (http://bit.ly/PSProvisioning)
• SharePoint Site Classification Widget (http://bit.ly/TSMetadata)
• Weather Widget (http://bit.ly/TSWeather)
27. Getting ready for the future…
• Write web parts and forms for Classic SharePoint today for easy
porting to SharePoint Framework
• Start learning TypeScript and a modern “tool chain”
(VS Code, Gulp, WebPack)
• Download the SPFx Preview and give it a spin
