  How to enable verbose logging for Azure Functions?

  This post describes how you can easily enable debug/verbose information for your Azure Functions for a lightweight and built-in way to extract just a bit more information out of your Azure Function executions. There are different methods available for Azure and your local development environment. Problem Azure Functions are awesome. But by default, your tools for gathering information without some additional configuration are not that great.

  SPFx webpart fails with "Failed to load component - - There was a network error."

  SPFx development is a bottomless bag of funsies! This article describes yet another way how to fix the error with your SPFx webpart failing to load a module. In this case, you'll get an error that starts with the generic "Failed to load component" -part, but contains "There was a network error" later in the stack. I've written about this before, but I keep running into new ways to mess up, so I'll keep documenting the solutions as well!

  Thanks for coming to my session at SPS Nashville 2019!

  I had the honor of speaking at SharePoint Saturday Nashville 2019 again, and it was a lot of fun! I had the chance to meet a lot of new (and some “old”) people. And what a crowd - so many (difficult) questions about SPFx & Teams development... 😬😂 (Don’t want to crawl through the jabbering? Just here for the materials? Well, they are here: SPS Nashville 2019 materials . Thanks for your interest!

  The boring version of browser wars is upon us

  The next browser war is upon us, and this time it isn't fought on the battlefield of proprietary API implementations and badly implemented CSS and JavaScript standards, but rather it's different ecosystems battling it out with their respective variants of Blink, which itself is a part of open source Chromium. Sounds boring, right? And to some extent it really is.

  Extending Microsoft Teams is now officially awesome

  This article is something of a combination of a technology overview and an opinion piece, detailing my thoughts about extending Microsoft Teams. To me, extending Microsoft Teams has pretty much only now become relevant. Before, the palette was still quite unfinished, but now we're definitely getting to a point where there are meaningful and cost-effective extension scenarios to cover most of the relevant use cases for most organizations.

  How to resolve "Error initializing application. Error: ***Manifest not found for component id [guid]." when adding an SPFx webpart to Teams?

  This article describes one way to fix the issue, where uploading and sideloading an SPFx webpart in Microsoft Teams just brickwalls you with a fairly non-descriptive error, and no way to proceed. Luckily, this is usually simple to fix - I'll describe 2 different solutions I've found so far! Problem You've got a SPFx webpart, that you've packaged as a Teams extension. You can even find it from Teams extensions, but while adding it as a tab, you run into issues.

  Enter the BRAVE new world of Chromium forks!

  I'm trying out new, more long-form content on this blog - tell me what you think about it in the comments section below! This article explains one of the only cryptocurrency initiatives I find to be kind of level-headed - Basic Attention Token - and the browser that's pretty tightly coupled with it, Brave. Note: If you just want to skip all the banter and download the hecking browser, click this .
