ShareCoffee is a small client-side framework which allows you as SharePoint or SharePoint Online App Developer to build Apps faster and easier than before. It's providing an unified API abstraction layer on top of SharePoint's REST API. It's fluent API is easy to learn and remember.
ShareCoffee is under MIT license, you can use it for any kind of SharePoint App no matter if your a personal or professional developer.
In addition to it's API abstraction for REST APIs it's also providing useful helpers for App developers like on-the-fly ChromeBar loading or painless SharePoint notifications
Where is ShareCoffee helping?
ShareCoffee is pretty easy to learn, don't waste time, jump in!
ShareCoffee is available here on github, alternatively can you install it directly into your projects using NuGet or bower
NuGet: Install-Package ShareCoffee
Bower: bower install ShareCoffee
git: git clone https://github.com/ShareCoffee/ShareCoffee.git
Load ShareCoffee by putting the following line of HTML code in your Default.aspx
<script type="text/javascript" src="../Scripts/ShareCoffee/ShareCoffee.min.js"></script>
Use ShareCoffee's fluent API to read all tasks from a fictive 'Tasks' list on the AppWeb with jQuery
var properties = {
url: "web/lists/GetByTitle('Tasks')/items"
};
$.ajax(ShareCoffee.REST.build.read.for.jQuery(properties))
.done(onTasksLoaded)
.fail(onTaskLoadingFailed);
var properties = {
url: "web/lists/GetByTitle('Tasks')/items"
};
$http(ShareCoffee.REST.build.read.for.angularJS(properties))
.success(onTasksLoaded)
.error(onTaskLoadingFailed);
var properties = {
url: "web/lists/GetByTitle('Tasks')/items"
};
reqwest(ShareCoffee.REST.build.read.for.reqwest(properties))
.onSuccess(onTasksLoaded)
.onError(onTaskLoadingFailed);

Watch Session Recordings
Early in 2014 I was able to demonstrate ShareCoffee during Microsoft SharePoint Conference in Las Vegas. As true for all the great sessions, there is a full-time recording available for free on Channel9. If you've interested in some background from the Framework or if you wanna see it in action watch my session recording on Channel9. Watch SP417 on Channel9
ShareCoffee is an OpenSource project which I maintain in my spare-time.
It would be awesome to get some cents back from the community.
SharePoint is Microsoft's best selling server product. ISV's and Venders out there are making big dollars with SharePoint. For individual developers as me, small dollars are also great. :)
ShareCoffee is free, but if you're interested in individual workshops for ShareCoffee, send me a mail using the form below.
