Good to know
Design decisions that follow from running without a server and from how SharePoint works.
- Scale. Lists read whole in id-ordered pages, so the 5,000-item threshold does not apply; tens of thousands of records per list are comfortable in a browser.
- Background jobs need an admin visit. Directory/device sync and reminders run while an administrator has the page open (configurable interval / daily UTC time).
- Email comes from your HR mailbox via the flow's runner account — prefer a service account.
- Local preview.
npm run previewthen openpreview-dist/index.html(demo records;?dark=true,?mode=appruns the setup-to-ready flow in-memory). - Exports contain what is on screen (filters/search applied, only records the viewer may see); PDFs cap at 3,000 rows.
- Privacy test first: switch employee privacy on only after the built-in test and preparing existing items.
- Language. Organisation language, time zone, currency and date format are configurable in Settings → General.
