Overview

Introduction :

SharePoint is a platform to support teamwork and content organisation system. It is a central web-based portal. We can manage our colleague’s and your own documents, social activities, data, and information using SharePoint.

Features are in some ways the component model in SharePoint. They allow you to define logical units of functionality.

For instance, we might want to have the capability within a site −

  • To create a list with a specific schema,
  • Have a page that will show the data from that list, and then
  • Have a link or a menu option somewhere within the site to navigate to that page.

The feature defines the unit and then the elements define the individual pieces of functionality inside of that unit. We discussed about the three kinds of elements −

  • A list instance to create a list.
  • A module to provision a page.
  • A custom action to create a menu option or a link.

However, there are many other kinds of elements that can be created within SharePoint. Another important concept to understand about features is that of activation and deactivation.

For example, if an end user wants the above-mentioned functionality to be added to his site, he would activate the corresponding feature that would create the list, add the menu option or link, and provision the page into their site. Later he could deactivate the feature to remove the functionality.

It is important to note that on deactivation of a feature, some elements are automatically removed. For example, SharePoint would automatically remove the menu option or link, which is defined by a custom action.

Others are not removed automatically. Therefore, in our case, the list instance and the page would not be removed automatically.

Hence, as a developer, you need to understand what elements get removed automatically and which ones do not. If you want to remove the ones that do not get removed automatically, you can write in code in a feature receiver.

SharePoint 2016

The SharePoint 2016 release has come with many exciting features. Features of SharePoint 2016 includes an app launcher and UI changes giving a better user experience. It has a Hybrid One-drive for Business which is very favourable for users who wish to venture into cloud storage the right way.

In SharePoint 2016, we can create new sites and pick whether they’re a team site for sharing documents or an Intranet site for publishing information. Also, we can choose who’s a member and mark right away whether the site is for standard documents or more confidential information.

SharePoint Server 2016 is developing with features designed to be acquainted, spontaneous, and built according the way we work. Start with the November 2016 Public update for SharePoint Server 2016 we’re taking what we learn as we learn Office 365 and bringing it to SharePoint Server.

SharePoint supports intranet, extra net and Internet applications from a single, integrated platform. The specific licenses you need depend on three factors: what capabilities are used, how SharePoint is deployed and where the system is hosted. The terms and conditions for how you can use the software are defined in the Product Terms document.
