SharePoint Framework – modern application development model
SharePoint Framework (SPFx) is a modern client-side development model for customizing and extending SharePoint Online and also Microsoft Teams, Microsoft Viva, Outlook, and Office applications. SPFX is supported on both SharePoint Online and SharePoint on-premises, beginning with SharePoint Server 2016. Developers can use development tools and JavaScript frameworks of their choice, and the development toolchain is built on top of open-source development tools, such as NPM, Gulp, and Yeoman.
A Local installation of SharePoint is not needed, and development and debugging can be done against the local workbench, which is run on Node.js, or against a workbench running on the cloud. The best part is that the development of SPFx customization can be run on any platform, such as Windows, Mac, or Linux, which supports modern client-side development tools.
