SharePoint 2010 Feature and Solution Development With Visual Studio 2010

by Michael Mukalian

Visual Studio 2010, when installed in the same environment as SharePoint 2010, provides a broad set of project type templates for creating SharePoint assets (sites, site elements, etc.), more so than SharePoint 2007. Upon creation of a SharePoint Project, Visual Studio 2010 automatically creates the necessary Feature and Package nodes, facilitating the creation of a SharePoint Feature and Solution Package. Today's discussion (and walkthrough) will show a few different scenarios of creating a SharePoint 2010 Project containing some site elements, and how Visual Studio 2010 has made Feature and Package creation a much simpler process.

Three Lessons Learned from Attending this Session:
New/enhancements in VS2010, new project types for VS2010/SP2010, simplistic deployment of customized assets for a SP2010 application

Lasso Far-Reaching Data With SPSiteDataQuery

by Hunter Pankey

SPSiteDataQuery is a powerful method of rolling data from child sites up the site hierarchy. This is a great tool for executive dashboard type systems, where many homogeneous child sites with symmetric data types must be combined and aggregated into a high-level display. Using familiar CAML query concepts, wide ranging data can be fetched and brought into a single tabular display. SPSiteDataQuery + LINQ = You are a champion and here is your crown!

Re-Experience SharePoint: Ripping Apart the SharePoint 2010 Interface

by Mark Miller

At the KMWorld Conference last year, Peter Moreville said something in the keynote that rang as true as the Liberty Bell: "When competing for grants, the prettiest pictures win the funding." This was an epiphany for me. We all know it's true, but are we taking advantage of it? Are we using all of the resources at our disposal to create an intuitive interface that will encourage participation and user buy-in of our sites?

In this session, we'll examine a default team site created in SharePoint 2010. We'll rip apart the presentation layer, piece by piece, exposing the underlying structure and CSS to see what can be done to create a more intuitive and aesthetically pleasing site.

At the conclusion of the session, you will have an understanding of how the presentation layer of SharePoint pages is structured and what you can do to make your site stand out from the basic SharePoint sites you see everyday. To paraphrase Moreville, "When it comes to End User buy-in, the interface wins the funding." Let's work together to get you that funding.
