SPFx Application Customizer: Global Header & Footer Without Master Pages

Key Takeaways

Application Customizers replace master pages for global branding in SharePoint modern sites — they're the only supported, update-safe mechanism.

Tenant-wide deployment with skipFeatureDeployment: true ensures your customizer runs across every site without manual activation.

Performance discipline is critical — cache API calls, avoid blocking onInit(), and minimise your bundle size since this code runs on every page load.
