About this book

• Provides a comprehensive journey into the core of the SharePoint User Experience from which readers will emerge as masters of the platform
•                                         Describes skills, tips and tricks that are rarely covered in SharePoint guides but that can make a huge difference to the success of a reader’s project
•                                         Dives deeply into the SharePoint architecture to provide a sound understanding of the platform
  

The SharePoint user experience is critical in application architecture and user acceptance. Using tools available to all developers, Building the SharePoint User Experience will show you how to rebuild a SharePoint site, taking it all the way from the default out–of–the–box experience to your very own customized user experience.
Along the way you will receive a solid understanding of the SharePoint architecture that will enable you to take full advantage of the capabilities of SharePoint as a platform. This will allow you to tailor the SharePoint user experience to increase the value of solutions and to work more effectively with projects. And that, of course, leads to successful SharePoint solutions in your business that your users are happy to accept and use.
