I’m Grygoriy Ponomarenko, an engineer-turned-SharePoint developer who understands the challenges teams face in maximizing the potential of Microsoft 365. Over the past five years, I’ve dedicated myself to crafting modern solutions using SharePoint Online, the Power Platform, SPFx, C#, and React/TypeScript. Through this blog, I aim to share practical insights, lessons learned from real experiences, and the occasional “war story” that may not be captured in the official documentation, hoping to support others on their journey.
Why this space exists
Project work is rarely as tidy as the documentation suggests. From the half-finished PnP script you polish at 2 a.m. to the SPFx web part that behaves perfectly – until a tenant setting says otherwise – real-world hiccups teach the best lessons. Here I’ll unpack those moments: what worked, what didn’t, and how to sidestep the detours I took.
What you’ll find here
- Step-by-step guides – provisioning secure site collections, wiring React components in SPFx, or calling the Graph API from Power Automate.
- Time-saving tips – small tweaks that shave minutes now and hours after the next tenant update.
- Case studies – experiences from solutions serving 80 000-plus users, showing how subtle design choices shape adoption and maintainability.
- Occasional reflections – thoughts on toolchain hygiene, versioning strategies, and the future of low-code in the enterprise.
How I write
Expect concise, code-first posts you can copy, adapt, and ship. When things go sideways (and they will), I’ll document the fix so you don’t have to trace the same rabbit hole.
