Introduction to Build in SharePoint

Start building with guided experiences

From the top of the page, you can quickly create:

• Sites to collaborate with your team or communicate across your organization.

• Lists to track work, manage data, and organize information.

• Document libraries to store, organize, and collaborate on files with versioning and secure sharing.

• Agents to enhance productivity and get content‑aware answers across your SharePoint content.

Guided creation experiences help you choose the right starting point and build faster, without needing deep technical knowledge.

Manage and improve what you build

The Owned by you section gives you a personalized view of the sites, lists, document libraries, and agents you own.

From here, you can:

• Quickly return to your recent work.

• Understand activity at a glance.

• Manage and refine the solutions you’ve already created.

Inline analytics are surfaced directly in the experience, helping you instantly understand how your pages and content are performing—so you know what’s working and where to take action next.

Learn how to build with confidence

The Learn to build section connects you to modular guidance from Microsoft and the community. These resources highlight:

• Best practices for building in SharePoint.

• What’s new and changing across the platform.

• Practical guidance to help you deliver higher‑quality experiences, faster.

By learning in context, you can stay current while continuously improving the solutions you build.
