I'm looking for documentation templates for the kinds of documents SharePoint Developers would commonly need to write as part of a project/solution that they have developed.

Or, ideas about what should go in such a document.

Are these the kinds of things that should be included in good documentation?

  • Project overview (often from the Business Analyst/Project Manager)
  • Business requirements (often from the Business Analyst)
  • Functional requirements
  • Solution design to include:
    • Site/list/content type definitions
    • Form definitions?
    • Workflows (Business, Functional or both?)
    • Branding
    • Source code?

  • Don't forget prerequisites such as SP Version, activated Site-features, metadata, etc. as well as how to publish this solution - deployment path Commented Sep 11, 2015 at 9:49
  • Personally everything you've listed above except for source code comes from Business Analysts in my experience. Developers create the deployable to those specifications and hand off a wsp or app with deployment instructions to a systems admin. Commented Sep 11, 2015 at 12:08
  • Thanks both for your input. Are you aware of any templates or samples out there? I haven't been able to find any, nor have I been able to find any official advice from Microsoft. Commented Sep 11, 2015 at 12:19
