Creating a modern site
SharePoint provides various templates or site types so that you can create sites. These templates use similar building blocks but create slightly different sites in the end that help target different collaboration and communication goals. These templates differ from each other in various ways, such as how they store information, how they present it, and even the features that they offer.
This recipe shows you how to create a site using the Team site template, which is the most commonly used site template for team collaboration.
