Make modern SharePoint pages full width
Zen Full Width is a free SharePoint Framework extension that removes the fixed content width on modern SharePoint Online pages. Add it to a site once and every page uses the full width of the screen.
What Zen Full Width does
Full width, site-wide
Every page and section on the site stretches to the full content width.
Column layouts preserved
Multi-column sections keep their ratios, such as one-third/two-thirds or half/half.
Edge-to-edge embeds
Embedded content can run edge to edge, which suits dashboards and reports.
Nothing to set per page
Add the app to a site and it applies to every page automatically.
Easy to undo
Remove the app from the site and pages return to the standard SharePoint width.
One package, many sites
The same package serves every site where it is added, so updates roll out in one step.

Questions
Why are modern SharePoint pages not full width by default?
Modern pages limit content to a fixed maximum width for readability, and the full-width section layout is only available on communication sites. This extension lifts that limit for all sections.
Does it change multi-column sections?
Multi-column sections keep their column ratios. Only the overall content width changes.
How do I turn it off?
Remove the app from Site contents. Pages go straight back to the standard SharePoint width.
Is this extension really free?
Yes. Zen Digital Systems provides Zen Full Width free of charge to download and use in your organisation's SharePoint Online tenant.
Does it work with SharePoint Server on-premises?
It is built for SharePoint Online in Microsoft 365. If you need a version for SharePoint Server Subscription Edition, contact us and we can discuss it.
Can you customise it for our intranet?
Yes. We can adapt the design, add fields or build a fully custom version as part of our SPFx development service.
