Check out what’s been going on in the Setfocus Sharepoint class last week:

Hi, this is David Wier.  Welcome back to my SetFocus SharePoint video diary. 

 For those of you who haven’t been keeping up with my diary, I’m doing this to comment on my experiences with the SharePoint class I’m taking through SetFocus.com.  In case you don’t know also, I opted for the night time class, it was better for my schedule which is Tuesday and Thursday night along with every other Saturday we do a full day. 

Last week, we actually started on the development part of the course.  So having gone through the administration course previously or part of the course, our teacher started laying out the basic framework of what we’re going to be learning including the architecture of the SharePoint site.  SharePoint is built on top of ASP.NET, so in the architecture portion, we learned how the SharePoint website get intercepted, if you will, from the normal ASP.NET DLLs that get set up through IIS for ASP.NET.

I know this isn’t the actual correct terminology here.  It’s just a way to highlight what we’ve been doing.  I know that some people probably wouldn’t be too interested in this part, but to me, along the way it helps me make a lot more sense of the way SharePoint works.  So once again, I’m really looking forward to my next class and I’ll see you again on my video diary.
