PnP SharePoint Starter Kit

This is a solution designed for SharePoint Online which provides numerous web parts, extensions, and other components which you can use as an example and inspiration for your own customizations.

Please be aware that documentation work is still in progress and there will be updated material for this solution starting in early June. In the meantime, please submit issues and questions using the issues list to help us provide better documentation and guidance. Thanks for your patience!

Objectives of this solution

SharePoint Communication Sites have great out-of-the-box capabilities, but the out-of-the-box capabilities may not always be sufficient for your scenarios. This is exactly why you are able to include your own customizations. This solution addresses common scenarios and tasks you may encounter when introducing those customizations, and provides examples and guidance on how you might address them including:

  • Automated provisioning of simple demo content within a communication site
  • Automated provisioning of the whole solution to any tenant within minutes
  • Automated configuration of Site Scripts and Site Designs at the tenant level using the PnP Remote Provisioning engine
  • Implementation of different customizations for SharePoint Online
  • Usage of Office UI Fabric and reusable PnP SPFx controls within the customizations

Additional high resolution screenshots are also available: front page and front page with extended footer.

Getting started

The following steps will help you get started in any tenant as fast as possible:

You will need to be a tenant administrator to be able to deploy this solution to your tenant.

  • Ensure that you meet the requirements for SharePoint Framework development and are using the latest version of PnP PowerShell
  • Upload and deploy the sharepoint-portal-showcase.sppkg from the /package folder to your app catalog
  • Use PnP PowerShell to connect to any site in your tenant with the Connect-PnPOnline cmdlet
  • Move to the provisioning folder and execute the following command (using your own tenant url and the prefix of your choosing): .\deploy.ps1 -TenantUrl https://contosodemosk.sharepoint.com -SitePrefix demo
    • This will provision 3 site collections with urls of /sites/demoportal, /sites/demohr, and /sites/demomarketing. Your urls may vary depending on the SitePrefix you use.

Notice that this script also adds tenant level settings like themes, site designs, and other adjustments. Therefore, it is recommended to test the script in an isolated test tenant and not immediately execute it within your production environment.
