Do you find SharePoint site creation a bit daunting? Not sure about the differences between a communication site and a team site? This update is definitely going to help!

Short version:
Microsoft will be updating the SharePoint site creation experience to make it easier for site creators to select the right type of site, understand roles, and site permissions. Updates to this experience will include refreshed graphics, expanded site descriptions, and additional context for different permission levels in the Site permissions panel. Rolling out in early November for some, available by mid-December for the rest of us.

Details:
The updated site creation experience is designed to help site creators quickly understand the differences between a communication site and a team site.



These updates will include improvements to the Site permissions panel so site owners and members can easily understand the differences between permission levels. Users will be able to hover over the information icon for more details.


This will impact the site creation process for end users that create sites from the SharePoint start page, and for admins that create sites from the admin centre.

Availability:
Rolling out in early November for some, available by mid-December for the rest of us.
