I don't have SharePoint installed in my machine.
I have installed VS 2013 Ultimate and have Office 365 developer site. And I want to develop Sharepoint 2013 apps without SharePoint installed in my machine.
When I open VS I can select template as Sharepoint 2013 apps and give URL of the site and select the hosting option. After do some smart coding I build the solution and then deployed.
When I navigate to Office 365 developer site I couldn't find the deployed app.
What is the issue? Anything I have missed?
First check output in Visual Studio to ensure that the app was indeed deployed successfully.
Second go to your Office 365 development site where it's supposed to be deployed. It should appear in "Recent" section in the side menu on left side. Alternatively go to Site Contents and your app should appear as a tile there.
If that still gives you trouble, try with a sample app project - open it and deploy it and see if that works.

My custom Office Excel add-in does not work in my DEV environment (1) with the following three VMs.
Proper DEV on-prem environment:
AD Domain Controller
SharePoint 2016 on-prem
Office Online Server (updated November 2018)
OOS works as I can open Office docs in the browser. Both SharePoint and OOS run on http.
Online environment (just to test add-in itself):
I have tested the same - sample Excel add-in generated by Yeoman - in different environment too: O365 and SharePoint Online (developer tenant). It works, manifest is added to Apps for Office in AppCatalog and server works on https://localhost. I can see task pane of add-in in the browser. I can also debug both: desktop and web.
The same add-in (with server running on https://localhost) which works in online environment (2), does not work in DEV environment (1). It does not work when I upload XML manifest to AppCatalog, and it does not work when I try to debug generated add-in too.
I saw Excel add-in working in Internet Explorer on environment also with SharePoint 2016 and Office Online Server (/Office Web Apps). However, I do not have more details about that environment and how this add-in has been installed.
On my Visual Studio 2012 software I need to create new web page for my Office 365 SharePoint as a Landing Page for my site. The Page has to contain some logic related to the SharePoint which is to be developed in Visual Studio itself.
The Question is what is the best way to achieve this, what should the project type be (should it be ASP.NET empty Web Application, if so what else would be required to setup) and How to pakage it and deploy on the Cloud (Office 365 account).
You will need to create App(Now called as SharePoint Add-In), then use the app-catalog to deploy and Install app on SharePoint office 365 site.
Below are some reference which will be helpful to you:
Buliding SharePoint Apps
Add a custom page and style to a SharePoint-hosted SharePoint Add-in
Use the App Catalog to make custom business apps available for your SharePoint Online environment
Hope this helps
I have made An App part using Napa in outlook365 which shows one URL of my external Application which I have made with that the current user name is there as in pic no.1{Devlopement code successfully Made}
Now I have made another outlook account in which SharePoint will open through office 365 which will be of End-user.I need to give some rights in such a way when user Open his SharePoint in outlook 365 on Main page the above App part will open with his name and above URL.I need to give some rights or permission so that his dashboard on login show that App part.
I don't know how to connect the above developer code with End user in such a way that App part will open in end user dashboard.
There are two parts to deploying from Napa to SharePoint 2013 On Premises.
Publish the App and download the .app file locally
Upload the App to the App Catalog in SharePoint 2013 On-Premises
Note: Double check that the Enabled box is checked when adding the app to the App Catalog. Only when enabled is checked can users can see the app in their sites.
Note 2: If you don't have an App Catalog in your On-Premises SharePoint 2013 Farm, one must be created through Central Administration first.

Package your add-in using Napa or Visual Studio to prepare for publishing
My aim is develop an excel application and use it on my sharepoint online 2013 portal. So I developed an excel task pane app on napa. I downloaded it for visual studio and open it on visual studio 2012. After that I changed it's project type from app for office to auto hosted app for sharepoint and I publish it, got .app file. Than I opened my sharepoint online portal app catalog site and upload my .app file to apps for sharepoint library. You can see my app(AddressCleaner) from below image.
After all of these steps I went site content and click add an app. But I can't see my app in available apps. I can't find any solution. Actually I followed this ->post
What I'm missing? Is any suggestion as to what is wrong?
Thanks
I solved my problem. I didn't understand its cause but it was solved. I downloaded my project again from napa and changed its package type in visual studio. After than i uploaded it to apps for sharepoint library in app catalog site. I installed it. Than i added my catalog site as trusted site to excel file and inserted my app. Thats all.
I am new to sharepoint online. At first I need to know the difference between sharepoint online and office 365 preview.
Preview site: https://portal.microsoftonline.com/Admin/Default.aspx which looms like below.
I have also the below site
Now what is the difference between the two. My goal is to create apps and webparts. Which one shall i choose? I have not installed sharepoint 2013 server/ sharepoint foundation. Can i create apps and webparts without installing server2013/foundation2013?
The Office365 Preview is running on the new SharePoint 2013 platform. If you want to build and monetize apps/web parts, you would need to go with this option, as it is the
latest and greatest.
Go to http://dev.office.com to get all of the resources you need including links to the software, tutorials, documentation, etc...
Microsoft provides a free Office365 portal specifically for developers who want to build apps on the online platform. With this, all you would need is Visual Studio 2012 and the SharePoint/Office SDK installed to build apps. You would deploy and debug directly on the online portal without needing SharePoint installed on your environment.
I hope this helps.
