Save list as template on modern team site
- Actually learning how to use Site Scripts and Site Design is quite straightforward…with the new way to create a Site Script from a list that is coming to SPO and the new Site Designs Panel you could get all what you need: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/blogs/site-scripts-site-designs-fall-2018-update/
One of the beautiful things about SharePoint used to be that anyone could be handed a site (or site collection) to admin and do nearly everything via the UI. Now you have to script site, list and library templates. Maybe we can advance it to DOS compatibility too so we can run batch files and make SP Admins feel more important.
I agree. I have managed SharePoint sites from when it was under the Beta "Tahoe" name. As far as I can tell, the SharePoint Online (O365), whatever, is a very large step backward. The beauty up until Online, was that you could develop usable solutions in minutes, rather than days or weeks. The UI was its power. Removing these UI tools in favor of scripting, or whatever, weakens the platform, not to say that scripting, etc. has its place. However, with my recent work in the Online version, I am extremely disappointed in what I see. So many usable tools removed, and the interface is not particularly user friendly. I'm not impressed, and from what I'm reading here, that is the feeling of many others. This to me would push people away to other solutions.
