Introduction

The purpose of this article is to demonstrate how to develop a very simple Hello World Web Part. The target application for this Web Part is Windows SharePoint services 3.0 (WSS), although it could of course be installed on Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS). The development of this assembly will be conducted on a system that does not have WSS/MOSS installed. The conclusion will demonstrate how to manually deploy and run this code, as opposed to using Visual Studio's built in deploy process.

This article is inspired by the work of Ted Pattison, whose video this writing is based upon and loosely follows.

Title: There is no Web.confg file

The reason there is no Web.config is because this project is not a web project. It is a web-based component that will be added into SharePoint, which is a web-application and will have it's own web.config. That said, you will have to register your web componenet with the web you want to show it from... actually with the site collection. (site collections and webs are another topic). So think of your web-part as being a specialized user-conrol. The user-control can be developed alone, then added to a web-project. That is the case here as well. I hope this helps.
