It's merely a tech question, but what language do I use t create a Webpart, that later I want to add on my SharePoint page? I just have to create a basic Webpart design and integrate it on the page.
SharePoint is an ASP.NET application and platform, thus any .NET (CLR) enabled language will do. However C# is "the" .NET language, thus I suggest you to use that.

#anabura,
There are several types of webpart. If you're developing webpart solution, that would be .net language.
Create a web part in Visual Studio
SharePoint client-side web parts are controls that appear inside a SharePoint page and execute client-side in the browser. They're based on SPFx and implemented by Front-end language such as Jquery/React.

We are migrating old SharePoint 2010 On Premise code to SharePoint Online.
Part of the SharePoint 2010 on premise code has custom list forms developed with visual Studio.
Thought of using JSLink for custom forms while migrating the code to SharePoint Online but it seems that JSLink is only supported in classic experience and not in modern new experience.
Is there any way we can develop custom list forms on SharePoint Online with modern new experience? Is it possible with SharePoint Framework?
Note:
Tried by adding forms to list instances on SharePoint Hosted Add In but it targets the AppWeb lists and not the lists on HostWeb.
Well you can use react in modern web part to build any custom form. We can reuse components.
Another option is to use Power Apps similar to info path to design and add validation on list form.

Another option is to use Content Editor webpart and add bootstrap html forms.
I hope it may help u.
Coding in Classic View is the only solution to your query. Once you are done coding in classic, you can switch/migrate to Modern View Experience.
In this way, your form will be visible and lists will also be consumed.
Nope!.. Modern sites are totally different development model So JSLink is not possible but you can use SharePoint framework extension to achieve the customization for the list.
Please follow the link below

Will we be able to add .NET code blocks to a page in SharePoint 365 - the cloud version of SharePoint? If so, how do we allow code blocks in the web.config?
Will we be able to use SharePoint designer to customize forms and create dataviews with external datasources?
Can we have asp.net codebehind files and class references? (I suspect not)
.NET code blocks (server-side scripts) are not supported in Office 365. You should build your ASPX page purely from controls and web parts, which would contain the code. Solutions for the SharePoint Online share their restrictions with sandboxed solutions for SharePoint 2010. The solution scope is a site collection; not a web application and thus you cannot access the web.config. However, you may not need to; you're bound only to a single site collection and the most usual task - adding SafeControls - is supported, although the SharePoint engine does not use web.config to maintain them. You can see an example of deploying a web part.
You can use the Designer to customize pages, forms and views. External data sources (entity types) - BCS - were added to SharePoint Online by the end of the last year. I haven't checked what connector types are supported; I presume SQL and WS sources, at least.
You cannot have the code-behind in ASPX pages. There is no ASP.NET compilation of pages and user controls available; that's why you have to compose your pages of coded controls and web parts only. However, there is a trick to circumvent this - the Visual Web Part. The original visual web part could not be used in a sandboxed solution because it relied on the ASP.NET compilation. There is a template available in Visual Studio 2010 SharePoint Power Tools that packages pre-compiled code to the solution and is friendly to the sandbox.
You can develop and test your sandboxed solutions on your local SharePoint 2010 prior deploying them to the SharePoint Online. Although I was surprised that deployng a solution to the SharePoint Online was kind of faster than to my local farm :-) MSVS makes the development really comfortable.

Not being a .NET developer, here is my limited knowledge. Office 365 is a multi-tenant implementation of SharePoint and you you should have the following capabilities:
upload code blocks as sandboxed solutions
ability to customize forms and data views with SharePoint Designer
Note that Office 365 offers 30 day trials that would allow you to test drive it. Let me know if you need more details as there are a couple caveats to be aware of when you start a trial.
This question relates to how to implement what Mr Prantl suggested.
Where to write C# code for office365 sharepoint site
Hope this helps.
I've been brought in as an intern to develop a SharePoint site. My team won't authorize the budget for Visual Studio and I don't have physical or remote access to the SharePoint server (running Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 a.k.a. WSS) on the back-end.
So what exactly can I do? I'm familiar with web technologies like PHP, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. However, since the environment is SharePoint, I'm stumped trying to figure out how much control I have with Microsoft's definition of "Full Control".
If I can write some C#, I'm pretty sure that would be sufficient, but as I said no Visual Studio for me.
Any good ideas of features that people will use on a site built with the limited functionality of WSS and SharePoint Designer with "Full Control"? Can I somehow manipulate the default Web Parts into something cool or useful? Are there Ajax tricks I can do to accomplish something on the back-end?
Thanks in advance, I'm new to StackOverflow and eager to get involved here!
You can actually accomplish a LOT in SharePoint outside of a custom .NET solution. Some recommended learnings are:
JavaScript/jQuery - Know how to interface with a WebService using jQuery. SharePoint exposes a number of very useful WebServices in the /_vti_bin directory. Click here for a list: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms479390.aspx. For example, I recently built a scrolling slide-show webpart entirely using jQuery and SharePoint's built-in webservices that pulls from a provided picture library.
DataForm Web Parts. Do some searching around on what these are and how they work in SharePoint. The tl;dr of these is that they're databound webparts that are bound to an SPDataSource and then rendered using XSLT to format the bound data. You can work with these in SharePoint designer, completely through the markup of your aspx page.
Do some searching on "customizing sharepoint list forms." The NewForm, DispForm and EditForm of any list or library can be customized to have behaviour or content added to them.
Those are just off the very top of my head...
EDIT:
I forgot to also mention http://www.muhimbi.com/Products/SharePoint-Infuser-%28Free%29.aspx
I've been meaning to check this out, since the concept is sound. I haven't tried it out myself but it will save you a lot of hassle when it comes to adding custom script that encompasses your entire site.
We've been asked to create a web application. One part of the specification is that in future, it can be integrated into Sharepoint. The last version of this app was written in PHP and "integrated" by means of an iframe embedded into Sharepoint; not ideal.
I'm looking to understand the use of Sharepoint in this context. I believe that you can write Sharepoint Applications which are more "native" to Sharepoint than the rough-and-ready iframe approach I discussed before. How easy is it to take a standard ASP.NET MVC application and fully integrate it into Sharepoint?
Does anyone have any thoughts, experiences, or resources on this matter?
I think the first question is what kind of integration with SharePoint are you trying to accomplish? The simplest is to use the Page Viewer webpart (i.e. iframe) method. You can also write custom webparts that show data from your custom application. That's a form of integration. The ultimate form of integration, of course, is to make your application run inside of SharePoint. That leads to my next point.
SharePoint (as of version 2007) is essentially a giant ASP.NET framework. So you can theoretically use it to host any ASP.NET web application. I have actually done it before and it works. However, that was a plain old ASP.NET webforms application (not MVC). If this is what you are trying to do, you definitely would need to rewrite your php application in ASP.NET.
In Sharepoint there is a Page Viewer webpart using which you can load a different url. This way you can easily "integrate" your application to sharepoint site ;-)
But if you are really looking at Re Engineering the application in SharePoint then its a different story. You have to study the current application and then develop it in SharePoint.
This fellow has an approach to writing PHP for SharePoint. A key statement:

I am used to building java web applications.
I am used to MCV.
As I learn how to build a Sharepoint site, is it ok to think of building Sharepoint sites similarly, particulary where there is business logic layer, that, for instance, would grab data from various DBs, do some logic, then go to a certain page?
SharePoint and MVC do not play well together, not in a supported way at least. This isn't going to change for 2010 either. It's an ASP.Net Web Forms app, and so acts accordingly.
There is a Open Source Project for SharePoint MVC but you need to understand the plataform first, with some SharePoint for Developers tutorials.
