“Technology is a word that describes something that doesn’t work yet.” –Douglas Adams


To cut through all the technical jargon and provide a more visible outlook on how to effectively develop top tier solutions in Microsoft SharePoint, it’s important to remember the core concepts of what makes a SharePoint site an efficient one. It is common that SharePoint administrators focus too heavily on the logistics and technicalities of the backend coding and not so much on the look and feel of a platform. This can diminish efforts in SharePoint development to achieve company-wide user adoption and overall successful utilization of the platform.
 
Platform based SharePoint development is built more around design which is important for the end users. Why? Design has become increasingly more important because as we are living in a more visual world, it is what has more popularly attracted users to an interface. What more? For skilled SharePoint users, it is a lot simpler to navigate around the platform and to focus on more pertinent intranet infrastructure.
 
Microsoft SharePoint is a proven innovator when it comes to efficient enterprise solutions. SharePoint greatly enhances collaboration and productivity and LiveTiles enhances those capabilities even further.


Here are 3 things to keep in mind with regard to SharePoint development via LiveTiles:


1. Agility: By utilizing the LiveTiles platform, users can make their Office 365 experience faster than ever. They can locate various document libraries quicker, create a mobile responsive canvas and it is all accessible on a simple click through user interface.

2. Scalability: LiveTiles can be scaled across many different functions of SharePoint development. Business users can easily create templates for tile integrations and pages for repeated deployment. By being able to save these templates, you can repurpose them for other projects and in the process save time, cut costs and spark further creative work. Additionally SharePoint users can utilize LiveTiles Build and LiveTiles Blueprint to graphically design impressive information architecture for various site collections, libraries and pages.

3. Extensibility: LiveTiles also extends to other components of Office 365. It allows business users the ability to implement awesome API connectors for Power BI, Exchange, OneDrive, Yammer, Delve, Sway & video – truly encompassing the Office 365 suite for a more enriching workplace experience. Furthermore, companies can easily provide external API libraries for clients, partners and other associates. Also, with LiveTiles, users can create custom tiles with specified configurations via SharePoint and JavaScript frameworks.

So, SharePoint development can be drastically simplified with LiveTiles – acting as a candy coated shell of excellence, LiveTiles makes SharePoint more agile, scalable and extensible. Collaboration, productivity and consistent workflows have never been so approachable.

LiveTiles can achieve SharePoint time reduction to complete tasks faster which leaves more room for other work and more revenue. Also, SharePoint admins can focus on more high quality work with these resources at their disposal.
