Exploring SharePoint REST API Endpoints

The SharePoint REST API is organized entirely around one root path ({site-url}/_api/) with everything else (lists, files, users, search) hanging off web, site, or a dedicated service beneath it. Here’s a reference list of the endpoints you’ll actually reach for, plus a working example calling one from plain JavaScript. In this post: Site and web

Custom Tabs: Hillbilly Tabs in Modern SharePoint

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

Unveiling JavaScript: Exploring Multiple Options to Format Numbers as Currency

JavaScript has several built-in and third-party ways to format a number as currency. Here are the ones worth knowing, and when to reach for each. 1. toLocaleString: built into JavaScript, formats a number according to the given locale: 2. Intl.NumberFormat: part of the ECMAScript Internationalization API, gives more control than toLocaleString and is the modern

CSS Demystified: A Quick Glance Cheat Sheet!

A working reference of the CSS properties and techniques that come up constantly when building responsive layouts. Viewport setup, media queries, flexbox and grid, positioning, transforms, and the modern tools (clamp, custom properties, container queries) that are now widely supported enough to actually rely on rather than treat as bleeding-edge. In this post: Responsive foundations

Microsoft Teams Competitors

Microsoft Teams’ real competitors are a shorter, more specific list than “everything with a chat window”, lumping in project-management tools and B2B sales databases muddies the comparison rather than clarifying it. This post keeps to genuine direct competitors: platforms that do the same core job (chat, meetings, file collaboration) that an organization would actually pick

Designing a Modern SharePoint Site: Elevate User Experience and Collaboration

“Modern SharePoint site design” covers more ground than one post can usefully hold, so this one stays narrow: the page-composition layer: the web parts, navigation, and personalization choices that actually shape what a visitor sees and clicks. For the step-by-step of creating and configuring a site in the first place, see A Comprehensive Guide to

Power Automate: Streamlining Workflows for Efficiency and Productivity

Power Automate is included, in a limited form, with most Microsoft 365 plans, which is exactly why the licensing side trips people up. “Included” only covers standard connectors; the moment a flow touches Dataverse, a premium connector, or scheduled RPA, that’s a separate paid tier, and the way that tier gets triggered isn’t always obvious

How to Send an HTTP Request in SharePoint via JavaScript

Plain fetch() or XMLHttpRequest work fine for hitting SharePoint’s REST API. The part that’s actually SharePoint-specific isn’t the HTTP call itself, it’s the headers: an Accept header SharePoint’s OData implementation expects, and a request digest token required on anything that isn’t a GET. In this post: A GET request: fetching list items · A POST

Start your SharePoint with SPFX

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.
