Developing for SharePoint on your local computer

If you are wanting to developer solutions for SharePoint in Visual Studio 2008 then you need a couple of things to get started:

You will need to install VSeWSS 1.1.
http://blogs.msdn.com/sharepoint/archive/2008/02/11/announcing-the-final-release-of-vsewss-1-1-and-the-upcoming-version-1-2.aspx
Then follow the instructions on Martin Vollmer`s Blog in his post on getting it installed without Sharepoint.

And to get workflow working you need to again follow the instructions on Martin Vollmer`s Blog in his post on getting the workflow dll's out of the server.
http://blogs.msdn.com/martinv/archive/2008/01/21/developing-custom-moss-2007-sharepoint-workflows-on-a-remote-workstation.aspx

Although this is convoluted it does work...

If you are developing for either of my MOSS Codeplex Projects (MOSS Time Off Management or MOSS Designer Workflow Activities) then you will need this up and running if you do not want to have to install everything on a SharePoint server...

UPDATE: If you can get this to work, you must be a SharePoint developer guru

# re: Developing for SharePoint on your local computer

the visual studio extensions for WSS is a nice thing to have, but is not required. I prefer to develop my solutions using a basic C# class library project. This provides the benefit of having other people maintain the project in the future without going through the pain of getting VSE installed locally or forcing someone to develop on a Server VPC.
