Microsoft previews SharePoint Framework 1.23 with list grouping tools

Microsoft has released a preview of SharePoint Framework version 1.23, the main toolkit developers use to customise SharePoint sites and extend Teams. Key additions include grouping support for list view command sets to organise items better, a preview of the updated command line interface, open-sourced starter templates, and fixes for npm security audits. General availability follows a beta on April 1, release candidate on April 8, and full launch on April 15, after a short delay for quality checks. The update enables deeper tweaks like overriding list panels and sets up quarterly releases for more predictable updates. Version 1.24 will add React 18 support.

With hundreds of abandoned collaboration spaces feeding chaos into your central content hub, these list grouping and command set tools let you sort documents and permissions into clear sections users can actually navigate, cutting search time from hours to minutes. Open-sourced templates mean you build professional layouts without design expertise or big dev budgets, perfect for a small team racing to launch a usable intranet. Custom overrides help enforce governance rules directly in lists, like spotting and fixing over-shared files before AI assistants start exposing them company-wide. Quarterly releases replace surprise updates with a calendar you can plan around, so one person can test and roll out improvements without dropping everything else.
