The story of apps
What are apps for SharePoint?Apps are small, easy-to-use, stand-alone applications that solve a need for your users or business. Site owners can install, upgrade, and uninstall them on their SharePoint sites without farm or site collection admins. |
What are apps for Office?Apps are web applications that extend what a document, email message, or meeting request can do in Office. Run them in multiple environments like Office desktop applications, Office Online, and mobile browsers—in the cloud or on your site. |
Why create apps
Build a new class of solutions with the App Model
Extend the way you create and use information from Office and SharePoint.
Deploy and maintain apps faster in the cloud
Use any hosting services to run and deploy them.
Use skills you have and tools you already know
HTML/CSS, JavaScript, PHP, or .NET, and web dev tools like Visual Studio.
Publish apps to your own app catalog
Or sell them in the Office Store.
