SharePoint Dev Weekly - Episode 67 - 21st of January 2020

In this session of SharePoint Dev Weekly, hosts - Vesa Juvonen (Microsoft), Waldek Mastykarz (Rencore), and typically a special guest from the SharePoint PnP Community, discuss the latest news and topics around SharePoint development.

In this episode Vesa and Waldek are joined by Yannick Plenevaux – Microsoft 365 Solutions Architect, new MVP and owner of PVX Solutions, Belgium.  In addition to drawing attention to the recent advancements being delivered by the SharePoint Community and Microsoft, Vesa, Waldek and Yannick’s discussion this week focused on:

• Founding a company – administrative duties, hiring a first employee, defining organizational direction, social media bubble, and the ongoing benefits of PnP community engagement.
• Approach to blogging – curiosity followed by discovering, experimenting, documenting and finally sharing.  Develop an understanding of the topic well enough to teach it to others.  Ask questions when get stuck.    
• This week’s focus – In addition to their day jobs, Yannick is working on the third installment in a series of Graph related blog posts, Waldek is focused on still more CLI commands and Vesa is recording a series of updated SPFx/Teams tutorials.

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 Community.
