SharePoint is a platform that evolved a lot in the past few years. It provides a simple and straightforward interface that allows you to do advanced operations quite efficiently. I write these articles with step-by-step tutorials to teach you how to build your sites in SharePoint. Once you understand these concepts, you will be able to, develop, and provide rich collaboration platforms with not a lot of work. These can give document version control, document collaboration, and even store organized data. If you’re a pro, I’m sure you can find something useful and learn something.

Articles will come on Tuesdays at 7 pm once every three weeks since I’m publishing at the same timeline articles about Power Apps and Power Automate. Reference Articles will be published every Friday at 7 pm also every three weeks.
