Waarom SharePoint Application Pages? - Robin Meuré
Wanneer je maatwerk oplossingen bouwt bovenop SharePoint dan heb je vaak behoefte aan een pagina in Central Admin om je oplossing te kunnen configureren. Het liefst zou je dezepagina in de look&feel van SharePoint willen hebben en uiteraard wil je zo veel mogelijk gebruik maken van bestaande SharePoint controls. En als het even kan zou je ook graag je configuratie willen opslaan zoals SharePoint zijn configuratie opslaat.. ;)
