Andrew Connell
I Help You Be the Best Microsoft 365 & Azure Full Stack Developer
If you have little to no experience creating apps for Microsoft Teams using full-stack development techniques, this is for you! After covering what tools you need to start creating Microsoft Teams Apps, you’ll learn how to build different components to extend Microsoft Teams. This includes building personal & channel tabs (apps), bots, and message extensions for Microsoft Teams. And, you’ll learn how to take your message extensions and use them as Copilot plugins if your users have Copilot for Microsoft 365!
NOTE: Hey 👋, Andrew here… this workshop is not intended for attendees to follow along & build the same projects during the session. Instead, focus on learning, taking notes, & getting answers to your questions - you’ll walk away with everything at the end of the day!

Build Solutions for Microsoft 365 with a Fluent API Library
Julie Turner
Partner/CTO Sympraxis Consulting, MVP
For the most part, your imagination is the limit when it comes to extending the Microsoft 365 platform. Join me for a complete look at the PnPjs library, a collection of fluent libraries for consuming SharePoint and Microsoft Graph REST APIs that make building solutions 10x easier and faster. This free, open-source initiative, part of the Microsoft 365 & Power Platform Community can be used within the SharePoint Framework, NodeJS, or any JavaScript/TypeScript based project.
This session will cover using the library within the SharePoint Framework and Azure Functions NodeJS project.
We'll cover:
- How to get started, your project template, and establishing context
- An overview of all the packages available and outline the ease of use
- More advanced scenarios like batching and cross site execution.

Code Once Use Everywhere - Using SPFx to create applications that work in Teams and SharePoint
Derek Cash-Peterson
Principal Architect - Sympraxis Consulting
Users are spending more and more time using Teams. It makes sense to try and reduce the friction of context switching by bringing our custom applications directly into Teams where they are working. We are able to harness the collaborative nature of Teams and SharePoint in one application and render it in many different contexts.
In this introductory developer session we will look at how to create and deploy a SharePoint Framework WebPart and have it be usable in Teams. We will use one code base to make the web part Teams aware in both a Teams Tab and a Personal App. We will look at how to use that app to read and write data into SharePoint using PnPjs.
Users will leave with an understanding of how to leverage SPFx to create applications they can use in Teams and resources on how to explore this further.
