There are lots of examples showing how to build and deploy SharePoint Framework client web parts. But what if you want to provision assets like content types or lists to go along with your web part? In this fast focus session, we will examine how to provision these types of assets using CAML and the Feature framework. We'll see how to add element manifests to your project, how to manage the feature manifest, and we'll briefly touch on feature upgrades.

You will learn:

  • How to create and manage element and feature manifests
  • How to work around the lack of tooling
  • Other options for asset provisioning
