Introduction
Microsoft provides various SharePoint list templates that we can use to create various types of lists or libraries. These list template ID's are used while creating a SharePoint list programmatically. We do not need to remember these list template ID's while creating a list or library. Template ID's of List, Calendar, Library, and Announcements are helpful while fetching items from SharePoint using SPFx.
Below are the standard list template ID's,
