We hope you've enjoyed reading and learning about the SharePoint Framework with this book. For us, learning about the SharePoint Framework, recalling details about past development models, and seeing how Microsoft actively expands the reach of these new development models to SharePoint 2016 and beyond has been exciting. Throughout the months leading up to this chapter, we've written, tested, deployed, redeployed, and configured SharePoint Online and SharePoint 2016. We're certain that the SharePoint Framework is here to stay, but at the same time, it will evolve rapidly in the coming months and years. For now, it seems that this model is the one that has stuck, and yet another development model is not around the corner. Developers are free to pick whichever features they seem comfortable with and choose not to use other aspects of SPFx; that is the beauty of this more open and more rapidly evolving model, a model that SharePoint has not seen before.
Thank you for...
