Worth leading with directly, since it changes what this post can actually recommend: `.getAll()` was removed entirely in PnPjs v4, the current major version as of 2026. The replacement isn’t a renamed method. It’s a genuinely different pattern, the same async-iterator (`for await…of`) approach covered from the JavaScript-fundamentals side in Does “for…of” loop wait for

PnP (Patterns and Practices) is the umbrella for several separate tools that speed up SharePoint Framework development, PnPjs for calling SharePoint from code, PnP PowerShell for admin/automation tasks, and a library of reusable React controls for SPFx web parts. This post covers what each actually does, where the real limitations are, and two places the
Creating many list items in one call means the same SharePoint REST `$batch` endpoint covered from the PnPjs side in SharePoint Data Handling with PnP Batching Queries. Worth reading there for the wire-format details and the real 100-request cap, both of which apply here too. This post stays on the raw `fetch`-based approach specifically, for

Formatting a date correctly for a global audience is a different problem than storing or converting it between time zones, for that side (native `Date` limitations, the new `Temporal` API, and which library is still current), see Store and Display Dates Properly in JavaScript. This post stays specifically on locale-aware formatting: getting the date order,

Worth leading with directly, since it’s the biggest recent change to this topic: JavaScript now has a native, built-in replacement for the notoriously bad `Date` object. The `Temporal` API reached TC39 Stage 4 (officially part of the language spec) in March 2026 and is already shipping in Chrome, Firefox, and Edge: immutable, timezone-aware, and a

Out-of-the-box SharePoint list and library views come with a command bar full of buttons (New, Upload, Share, Automate, Power Apps) most of which a given audience doesn’t need and shouldn’t necessarily have. JSON command bar formatting lets you hide, rename, or restyle those buttons without any code. In this post: Applying the JSON format ·

TypeScript adds static typing on top of JavaScript, catching a real class of bugs at compile time instead of at runtime. The fundamentals here haven’t changed in years, but two specific things in most existing TypeScript guides have: the default target in a new project’s tsconfig.json, and how decorators actually work as of TypeScript 5.0.

Worth a direct correction before anything else: “Hillbilly Tabs” isn’t a generic jQuery/Script Editor technique. It’s the name of one specific, real, open-source SPFx web part built by Mark Rackley, and describing it as DOM manipulation via a Script Editor web part describes a different, unrelated (and now largely non-functional) approach entirely. This post covers

SPFx (SharePoint Framework) is Microsoft’s current framework for building client-side web parts and extensions with TypeScript and React. The basic shape of getting started hasn’t changed, but two real pieces of the toolchain have (the build tooling and the way you test locally) and a lot of “getting started” guides still show the old versions.
