General design recommendations

Avoid custom master pages

Do not use Sandbox solutions

Do not use site definitions / web templates

App parts in IFrames is not the only solution

Service updates for introducing new capabilities to team sites also using feature stapling

Significant differences on the outcome unless web template onet.xml has been updated cross site collections with the changes which were also done for out of the box team site.

Web Template onet.xml is created by copying team site onet.xml and by adding stapled features to the onet.xml
