Topics discussed in this session:

  • Why is PnPjs so successful?   What drives behavioral change and the probability of success?   
  • How is PnPjs V3.0 (V6.0) optimized? 
  • V3 theme or approach - “What do we put in the library vs what do we enable others to build.”
  • How is the perception of opensource changing? 
  • Can others join the PnPjs project team?   You bet - start by resolving an issue, define and own a capability, work with Julie @jfj1997 and Patrick @mediocrebowler.
