Chris and Dave's SharePoint And Tech Blog

  I have not really looked very deeply at SharePoint Foundation yet so I thought that through this post I would take the opportunity to check out and share with you the out of the box web parts that ship with SharePoint Foundation 2010. These are split into 5 sections

List and Libraries

   Announcements

   Calendar

   Links

   Pictures

   Shared Documents

   Site Assets

   Site Pages

   Tasks

   Team Discussions

Content Rollup

   Relevant Documents

   XML Viewer

Forms

   HTML Form Web Part

Media and Content

   Content Editor

   Image Viewer

   Page Viewer

   Picture Library Slideshow Web Part

   SilverLight Web Part

Social Collaboration

   Site Users

   User Tasks

Now in comparison to SharePoint server 2010’s 11 sections a small amount of web parts but for a free product a good starting point on your road to SharePointLand, in my next post I will go through the web parts available in SharePoint server 2010.
