Develop SharePoint Add-In using SharePoint 2016 On Premise and Visual Studio
In this article, I am going to explain how to create SharePoint hosted Add-In using Visual Studio and how to deploy this Add-In to SharePoint 2016 on premise version.
Building a successful Add-in include two steps. First you need to author your Add-In using Visual Studio. Once you build your Add-in you need to deploy this Add-In to a SharePoint environment and test the Add-In. You can deploy the Add-In to SharePoint online or to the on-premise SharePoint. This article covers the deployment of Add-in to the On Premises version.
Step 1: Create Your Add-In
Open Visual Studio as administrator. From the Menu, select File -> New -> Project
In the new Project Dialog box, from the left menu, expand Visual C#, then Office/SharePoint and choose SharePoint Add-in. Also you can use the search box in the top right corner to locate the Add-n Project template.

Hide the Sign In link from SharePoint 2013 publishing site
When you build a publishing site in SharePoint 2013, once you convert your html file to SharePoint master page, you may notice a sign in link appear in the top corner of the page. Today I am going to explain how you can hide the sign-in link from a SharePoint site.
For the purpose of demonstration, I made a simple html file and converted it to SharePoint 2013 master page. Once the master page is applied to the site, it looks as follows.
See the highlighted Sign in button. When a HTML file is converted to SharePoint 2013 master page, SharePoint adds some tags as HTML comments to the file. So SharePoint adds this sign in control to your file. If you evaluate your html file after conversion, you will find the below block.
<!--MS:<SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl runat="server" AuthenticationRestrictions="AnonymousUsersOnly">-->
<!--MS:<wssucw:Welcome runat="server" EnableViewState="false">-->
<!--ME:</wssucw:Welcome>-->
<!--ME:</SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl>--> -

It is important to customize the look and feel of SharePoint portal implementation to match your corporate branding. For public websites, branding is in the top of the list, where you need to create appealing websites.
