Minimal Path to Awesome

The quickest path to building the web part and running it with mock data:

  • Obtain API keys for Bing Maps and Open Weather Maps. In src/webparts/fieldVisitTab/, copy constants.sample.ts to constants.ts and add the API keys.
  • npm install
  • gulp serve

To work with real data, the web part requires content to be in place including:

  • A Microsoft Team
  • Calendar items in the Team's shared calendar, encoded with Northwind database customer IDs
  • Documents and photos in SharePoint
