Overview of this book

SharePoint is one of Microsoft's best known web platforms. A loyal audience of developers, IT Pros and power users use it to build line of business solutions. The SharePoint Framework (SPFx) is a great new option for developing SharePoint solutions. Many developers are creating full-trust based solutions or add-in solutions, while also figuring out where and how SPFx fits in the big picture. This book shows you how design, build, deploy and manage SPFx based solutions for SharePoint Online and SharePoint 2016. The book starts by getting you familiar with the basic capabilities of SPFx. After that, we will walk through the tool-chain on how to best create production-ready solutions that can be easily deployed manually or fully automated throughout your target Office 365 tenants. We describe how to configure and use Visual Studio Code, the de facto development environment for SPFx-based solutions. Next, we provide guidance and a solid approach to packaging and deploying your code. We also present a straightforward approach to troubleshooting and debugging your code an environment where business applications run on the client side instead of the server side.

Creating TodoItemComponent

Finally, we will create TodoItemComponent. It is responsible for rendering a to-do item and has a UI for the edit panel and the delete button.

We will create three files in the components folder. First, create a file named ITodoItemProps.ts and insert the following code; the parent component will communicate to-do item details as well as the bound functions to edit and delete the to-do item:

export interface ITodoItemProps { 
  itemId: number; 
  itemTitle: string; 
  itemDone: boolean; 
  edit: any; 
  delete: any; 
} 

Next, create ITodoItemState.ts and insert the following code:

export interface ITodoItemState { 
  itemId?: number; 
  itemTitle?: string; 
  itemDone?: boolean; 
  showPanel?: boolean; 
} 

Again, all the properties in state interface are optional. For each to-to item, we are interested in its data. In addition, we use this.state.showPanel to control the visibility of the edit to-do item panel.

Create the final file, TodoItemComponent.ts, in...
