External JS library
Easier to manage & debug

Allows for greater control over
commands
• Enable/disable command
• Block loss of focus
• Reusable across customizations
Disadvantages
• Poor JavaScript dev tools
• Must be added to the page
• More work (build, register &
initialize on page)
• All OO JavaScript
Global Commands
• Always available when on a
page
• (if CanExecute says it is
available)
Focused Command
• Only available at specific
times, e.g. when web part
has focus
• Example: Content Editor Web
Part controls
SplitButton
ToggleButton
Spinner
• Easy default plus
sub-menu
• Off or on
• Select within a
range
Server side:
SPRibbon.MakeTabAvailable
For contextual tab
SPList.UserCustomActions
Target an individual list
JavaScript:
RefreshCommandUI()
Refresh ribbon, e.g. in async callback
SP.SOD.ExecuteOr
DelayUntilScriptLoaded()
Deal with JS dependencies
