jPoint is a JavaScript framework that manages to use jQuery to great effect on the SharePoint environment. It acts like a bus boy between the end user and a SharePoint list, enabling you to manipulate data and forms to enhance the experience. But you might ask why and who should use jPoint.

To answer this we only need to look back at our last project. Creating a form that inserts data into multiple lists and returns reference keys, yet still guiding the user through a series of forms collecting only the data that currently mattered. The project was a success but creating the underlying code caused too many headaches and only highlighted the need to improve this area. Using one simple call to the jPoint framework would have given us the necessary API hooks to cut down development time. We could then refactor the code; improving the performance and ultimately delivering the project ahead of expectations.
