PnP Weekly - Episode 83 - 11th of May 2020

In this weekly discussion of latest news and topics around Microsoft 365, hosts – Vesa Juvonen (Microsoft), Waldek Mastykarz (Rencore), are joined by Paul Schaeflein - MVP, Developer, Technical Architect and Microsoft 365 Podcaster in Chicago, Illinois, based Addin365.  Paul is focused on helping peers and customers use the parts of Microsoft 365 that are relevant to their job.  What is the Microsoft 365 opportunity for developers? Of course, that depends. Microsoft 365 provides many options. First understand and bridge the gap between what your staff can do (their knowledge) and what the service can do for you/them. Key focus areas for newbies? Learn how to write and secure an API, understand React and now React hooks, know your native coding tool - editor, know how to use search engines to find people and information efficiently, understand how to interact with a service you don't own and finally, keep learning.

As always, if you need help on an issue, want to share a discovery, or just want to say: “Job well done”, please reach out to Vesa, to Waldek or to your PnP Community.
