PNP provides many great tools which ease development, like

  1. PNP Power Shell
  2. PNP/JS
  3. PNP PnP.Core.Services;
  4. PnP.Core.Model.SharePoint
  5. PnP.Core.Auth

now some clients do not allow us to use any open source technologies such as the above PnP technologies.. so my question is what are the implications of using such an open source technologies?

second question, for each of the above technologies what are the alternative which are none-open source?

Thanks

    Hi @john john

    PnP is supported in similar ways as other open source projects done by Microsoft with support from the community by the community

    There are numerous partners that utilize PnP within their solutions for customers. Support for this is provided by the Partner. When PnP material is used in deployments, we recommend being clear with your customer/deployment owner on the support model

    You can refer to following document

    Supportability of open-source projects

    As far as I know, you can use CSOM or JSOM to alternate pnp.
