Sharepoint apps are also called as SharePoint add-in. A SharePoint Add-in is a self-contained piece of functionality that extends the capabilities of SharePoint websites to solve a well-defined business problem.
There are two types of SharePoint Add-in
- SharePoint hosted apps
- Provider-hosted apps
SharePoint Hosted App
SharePoint hosted apps are those apps, where all the components are hosted on SharePoint only.
SharePoint-hosted apps are installed on a SharePoint website, called the host web. They have their resources hosted on an isolated subsite of a host web, called the app web.
Provider Hosted App
Provider-hosted apps for SharePoint include components that are deployed and hosted outside the SharePoint farm.
They are installed to the host web, but their remote components are hosted on another server. i.e. App web for provider hosted apps is completely a different server (provider).
