  • Article

In this post, learn about the new infographics that visually explain many aspects of SharePoint development. The infographics cover a wide range of topics from explaining what SharePoint is to detailing the workflow architecture, to a comprehensive selection of apps for SharePoint topics.

We are committed to provide exciting and modern content for developers. For SharePoint Conference 2014, we have developed a set of infographics that explain aspects of SharePoint in a more visual way. You can download the infographics individually or browse them on the apps for SharePoint dev center.

SharePoint infographics are broken out into three general areas: Introductory material, App patterns, and Design choices.
