Practice with sharepoint 2010 online

Question

I want to learn about sharepoint 2010. About 20,000 INR costs me to set up the environment. Instead, there is some kind of website to provide access to their machines and to give the opportunity to practice the development and functions of sharepoint, etc. I know that there is no question asked, but this is only a site on which masters can give a quick answer.

thanks

Answer 1

Try it. I also found it. Virtual machine

Here we can also access sharepoint 2010 and visual studio.

Answer 2

If you want to play with SharePoint without the cost of setting up your own SharePoint environment, you might be lucky with Office365

Answer 3

Office 365 will give you some testing of the functionality of end users, but if you are going to develop sharepoint, you really need a localized environment. Sandboxed solutions will take you far, but only part of what you need to truly develop sharepoint.

I suggest starting with the basics of sharepoint in a localized environment. This can be installed on a Windows 7 computer with SQL Server Express and does not require any licensing other than the Windows 7 host computer and can work with 4 GB of memory.

Answer 5

Cloud share is best practiced for 14 days, otherwise setting up a virtual machine is a good option
