- 4. We regularly hear about the importance of building Apps Add-Ins from the Microsoft folks. But in many cases, that approach is overkill. Even in enterprises, all solutions aren’t "enterprise scale". It’s always been possible to build solid solutions or solution components using Data View Web Parts or the trusty Content Editor Web Part to hold some HTML, JavaScript, and CSS, and those are still viable approaches. With a few other more modern tricks, we can even build solutions that span many pages using a common code base. Join me as I kick around the plusses and minuses of “sanctioned development” versus smaller, lighter-touch approaches. Feel free to bring along your own questions and challenges so that we can make it a discussion. Based on a discussion with Scot Hillier on the ITUnity Dev Pulse
