Course Content Fixes

While I proofed the course content prior to rendering the videos and even had someone proof the final videos, some minor typos made it through. These minor issues have been addressed..

Implemented: Persisting Playrate Speed Across Lessons

As part of the September 19th launch, the site was updated so now your playrate speed is saved across lessons. Once you set the playrate speed, when a lesson page loads, the previous playrate speed selected is set on the current video if it can be retrieved.

Office Hours

For those of you who subscribed to the Ultimate Bundle, one benefit you have access to are scheduled office hours. In the next few weeks, you will receive an invitation to the first Mastering the SharePoint Framework - Office Hours in early November. The webinar session will be recorded and made available for those who can’t attend live.

Upcoming Chapters

The next two chapters that will be released are (sprint 6):

• SharePoint Framework Extensions
• Working with SharePoint Lists & Libraries (renamed when released)

SharePoint Framework Extensions will cover all three types of Extensions that are now generally available in all SharePoint Online tenants. This includes Application Customizers, Field Customizers and Command Sets. The chapter called Working with SharePoint Lists & Libraries will cover how to work with existing data. In my experience, the most popular data source SharePoint Framework based customizations are leveraging is SharePoint lists and libraries. Therefore, this chapter is needed sooner rather than later for those who want to use the included tools to interact with SharePoint data sources.
