Demos

  • Build a Teams Meeting app with Live Share SDK - Who’s Next sample – a simple Tab app solution that uses Live Share SDK, Teams Toolkit and Fluid UI. When in a meeting, any participant can (in side panel) add/delete themselves to the who’s next to speak queue, that immediately renders (Fluid) on all other participants screens. Low/no permissions requirement to use. Step through code – manifest, React app, the fluidLiveShare component, and the connection to the LiveShare SDK/host.
  • Latest on the Microsoft Graph Connectors – get a brief introduction to Microsoft Search & Graph connectors, latest GA and Preview releases from Graph connectors, content through Cloud SSA to Graph connectors (cloud hybrid search), and the availability of Graph connectors in Teams mobile and iOS devices. Viewers views on Cloud SSA and on how Teams content can be brought into Microsoft Search from Teams mobile devices is requested.
  • Contributing to Microsoft Graph .NET SDK for improved batching – preface from Waldek Mastykarz on this Hackathon entry that no less than improved the Graph SDK itself! Author’s approach: Extend the SDK so everyone can start using the new batching endpoint and at the same time, fix Blazor web assembly templates to get along with the Graph SDK for .NET v5. See measurable performance improvements adding/deleting 10 items to a ToDo task list with and without batching.
