Hi Chandani.
I know I am not in the right place. But I could not find the correct and accurate information. Please forgive my rudeness.

My company uses SharePoint 2016 on its local intranet. A while ago, when I was looking into it in my spare time, I noticed the SharePoint Rest APIs. Then, with my amateur work, I wrote a core API similar to pnpjs but much simpler. With this API, I could manipulate (CRUD) the sharepoint lists in my own area, albeit amateurishly. I was storing these html+css+js files in a subsite I created in my own sharepoint area. Since I could not transfer all these files I needed to the system from outside and I could not install an IDE on the system, I was creating these files myself with notepad. You know what I am talking about, it is very boring and stupid. In fact, when I was writing my own core sharepoint API, I had no other alternative than the Firefox developer console for debugging. However, all my efforts eventually gave me a nice app and my work became much easier. However, now the Firefox developer console has been closed by my system administrator from group policy.

Now I need to update this application and write a new application. I no longer have a debugging environment. Moreover, as a result of my research, I learned about pnpjs and spfx. I also learned that custom scripts are blocked in new versions of sharepoint and its online version and that I need to do things with .sppkg.

My company is still using sp2016 and the application I wrote before works. I can still use custom scripts. However, I do not have a test environment. My plan is to write my application outside the company network, test it and transfer it to the company network when it is completed. This is a bit of a tedious process, our system administrator is very capricious. How do you think I can create the most suitable and simple test environment? I do not want to set up a VM myself, configuration and maintenance are very tiring, and spending my system resources on a VM is ridiculous. I bought SharePoint Online for $5 per month but after a long struggle I realized that it does not support custom scripts. Azure VMs are very expensive. Please tell me there is a much easier way.

I hope you have a nice day.
