This post has been republished via RSS; it originally appeared at: SharePointDsc articles.

Hello all,
 
Version 2.4 of SharePointDsc has been released last Wednesday. Over the last weeks we've implemented many bugfixes and improvements to the module. This release will be part of the DSC Resource Kit which was released on July 25th 2018.

With the release of the Public Preview of SharePoint 2019 last Tuesday, we are about to add support for SharePoint 2019 to our "v3.0-development" branch. Over the past weeks we have been testing SharePointDsc with early releases of SharePoint 2019 and implementing changes to fix issues we discovered. More on this once the support has been added.
