Sitecore JSS provides a lot of benefits in comparison to the “classic” Sitecore MVC/Webforms development approach in terms of both usage of the latest and greatest frontend frameworks, but also improving the development workflow. In this post I’ll describe steps and considerations of migrating an existing Sitecore solution to JSS, based on a real world project experience.

With all it’s benefits, the NuGet PackageReference format sometimes brings challenges. Recently I’ve been converting a Visual Studio solution to the NuGet PackageReference format. After conversion, I have encountered an issue that SlowCheetah config transformations stopped working properly when using MsBuild (which is relevant for CI/CD builds). Luckily, I have found a workaround, which I thought is worth sharing.
