ReSPondev is the ultimate tool to upgrade SharePoint page to the modern web UI

Responsive Master Pages, Layouts, and Styles That Give You MORE

Modern frameworks make building truly responsive, attractive web sites easier than ever before. Just a minimal amount of styling can create really dramatic effects that are truly compelling.

Unfortunately, out-of-the-box SharePoint is known not to play nice with frameworks like Bootstrap or Metro UI. That's because these frameworks often do things that are very similar to some features within SharePoint, but they're implemented in slightly different ways. For example, simply loading Bootstrap onto your SharePoint site can break the ribbon and other essential components within the site, undermining content management features that make SharePoint a compelling platform in the first place.

While Microsoft has made some recent progress with their 2016 "new experience" for SharePoint, they still have a long way to go; not every web design is a good fit for the New UX, and not every site is ready to move forward to the latest version. There are still many good reasons to want to integrate your site with non-Microsoft web frameworks.

Our solution provides you with SharePoint master pages, layouts, and style sheets that work as a great jumping off point for responsive web designs. Support for Bootstrap and Metro UI are both provided out-of-the-box. We've worked around all the issues that prevent these frameworks from being fully interoperable in SharePoint sites. These make it easier than ever to take customized HTML from your web designer and insert the code directly into SharePoint.

MORE About Our JavaScript Library and Apps

Having done many, many SharePoint customization projects over the years has allowed us to accumulate a large collection of reusable bits and pieces which have found their way into various solutions. But we've gone even farther than that, honing our code into a framework that lets us focus on developing cool SharePoint sites instead of fussing over the background wiring. Here are some of the things we've included that make ReSPondev the best way to customize SharePoint.

Our modules are built using Node; they work equally well if you're creating SharePoint apps or just uploading them into a document library to use with Script Editor Web Parts.

• Useful modules for Attachment, Lookup, URL, Managed Metadata, Choice fields - and User Profiles
  

We've done all the work to integrate with many existing libraries and frameworks into SharePoint. All our framework references use public CDNs that fully support CORS integrity checks. Load them as needed or substitute your own on any page. We also publish ReSPondev using a private CDN that's available to our customers; leverage our code in place or copy it to your SharePoint library or layouts folder as needed.
