Development Environment
Hello,
I have a question about the process of developing in SharePoint Online (modern).
In developing both web parts and extensions, I find the process very time consuming to the point of it being unreasonable.
Whenever I make a change to code, and want to see the results, the automatic compilation does not work for me, or it works sporadically. I have to close the page and kill my server and that takes a few minutes to complete. Between code changes this is ridiculous. And when I try again, killing my server, closing the page and doing a gulp serve half the time it just hangs, loads the page without my code, or it shows a previous version.
It is impossible to program this way, and so I am wondering if I am the only one complaining about this? If I missing something obvious please let me know?
Thank you
- Sounds like there's something wrong with your dev enviroment, have you tried setting it up on another PC or a virutal machine ?
- sivilianCopper ContributorYes. I have tried on a virtual machine, and I have worked on many different projects, but the experience is always the same.
