Getting Started
What do I need?

You need…
RAM!

To Virtualize or not?

What else do I need?
Windows Server 2008 R2 (or SP2) x64 / Windows 7 x64 for native installs
SQL Server 2008 R2 (or SP1+CU2) x64 / SQL Server 2005 SP3 x64
Virtualization Software (if virtualizing) – Oracle VirtualBox, VMWareWorkstation, Hyper-V, etc.

SharePoint Basics
Farm (SPFarm) – Represents the collection of servers of the SharePoint deployment
Web Applications (SPWebApplication) – Typically one or more of these maps to a web site in IIS (i.e.: Port 80)
Site Collection (SPSite) – Will have at least one. Groups sites together
Site (SPWeb) – Represents a site or subsite in a Site Collection. Contains pages, lists, etc.
Feature – Allows code and SharePoint changes to occur at the click of a button
Solution (.wsp) – CAB file used for deployment

SharePoint Root Folder (aka 14 Hive)
Location of most key SharePoint files: C:Program FilesCommon Filesmicrosoft sharedWeb Server Extensions14
Called 12 in WSS3

Solution Types
Farm Solution – Same type of solution used in WSS3. No security restrictions unless using partial trust
Can be deployed with Full Trust or Partial Trust
Sandboxed Solution – Deploys to the site collection with security limitations
Can only access a subset of the SharePoint object model
Cannot elevate privileges
Can only access artifacts in the site collection it was activated on
Administrators can restrict the amount of resources available
Ideal for shared hosting environments / SharePoint Online

Visual Web Part
A glorified ASP.NET User Control with a Web Part wrapper
Built with a designer
Previously only available in Farm Solutions
Sandbox compatible version available with Visual Studio 2010 SharePoint Power Tools

Visual Web Part Demo
Demo

SharePoint API
SPContext – Used to get reference to the current site or site collection
All uses of SPSite or SPWeb must be disposed (use a using statement)
Most collections do not have an “Exists” method
A few if them do now in SharePoint 2010
Most objects require a call to .Update to save any changes made
Some API calls require elevated security – Pass a delegate to RunWithElevatedPrivleges

Demo
Demo

Deployment
No manual configuration or third party add-ons required
Visual Studio builds features and solution package files for you
Visual Studio deploys packages directly to SharePoint server
Solution packages can still be deployed to other servers via PowerShell
