SharePoint 2013 – App Model 3 Tier Diagram
I needed a quick reference to introduce developers with the SharePoint 2013 App Model.
For traditional ASP.Net and Dot Net coders there is a wide philosophy gap to cross when considering new applications written mostly in front-end JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. Instead of coding “in” SharePoint (to augment the core product) we now code “next to” SharePoint (with additive REST/JSON endpoints).
The stability which comes from this approach is significant. We wan to run on-premise SharePoint similar to how Microsoft operates Office 365. No more SharePoint customization lost during patching. No more late night WSP and IISRESET outages. Code can be modified more fluidly and IE breakpoints can even be set at a single user’s desktop when troubleshooting. Exciting and powerful tools – which require a new way of thinking.
