22. Developer Tip # 2: Which Option?
When looking to extend SharePoint, you need to consider all options from farm solutions, sandboxed solutions to different types of apps. This is true across the product… many times you have lots of options on who to achieve something, but no “best” option. The best you can do is to make sure you are well educated and prepared for all options so you can make the most informed decision possible.

30. Managed vs. Unmanaged

31. Developer Tip # 3 & 4: App Part & OAuth
Unlike Web Parts, App Parts were not designed to participate in App Part to App Part communication.
SharePoint 2013 just adds OAuth support to authenticate SharePoint apps, it does not use OAuth to authenticate users.  However, when using OAuth from a SharePoint app, you can also check a user’s permissions (perform authorization).

32. Common Tasks Creating, administering a site Creating a Web part
Data (e.g. List) Programming
SharePoint-Hosted App
Content types, site columns, etc.
Branding & Theming

33. Accessing Lists Programmatically

34. Developer Tip # 5: Accessing Lists
The “tip” I most frequently use is getting the list through the URL instead of the title.  It’s a pain to get right the first time but once you do it you’ve got a stable way to access a list (since title can change) and it’s more performant since SharePoint doesn’t have to load the collection of lists up.  However, it’s not supported in the CSOM or REST (without a second call)
