SSW Chapel - Doing a Renovation in 6 Days!
I am happy to let you know that the SSW Chapel is up and running. It was renovated in 6 days and is now the smartest conference area in Sydney because it allows both recording and live streaming.
We also redesigned the website using a cool Parallax theme - see www.sswchapel.com.au.
Contact Uly if you want to book it for your event.
The Renovation
Renovations are like software – it’s easier if you don’t change the plan. In other words, it’s never easy.
But what you can do to make it easier, is cut a big project into a smaller one. SSW is divided into an upstairs and a downstairs, so we decided to do this renovation in 2 parts: the upstairs first and the downstairs later.
We had done our planning, but it felt like every time we sat with the architect, new ideas and new products were evaluated and things changed.
Keep reading to discover how we got it done and what we learned.

HoloLens - A world where anything is possible

Never has there been a more exciting time to be on the forefront of technology, with HoloLens poised to be a major game-changer.

SSW was one of the 1st companies in Australia to purchase the $3000 HoloLens developer edition.

Microsoft originally assumed it would be a gaming product, but surprisingly, these dev editions are mostly not being purchased by entertainment or gaming companies. In fact, the business demand of this product has dramatically outperformed Microsoft’s expectations.

During this presentation, Stephen Carter will take you through:

  • The history of the hologram, from fiction and Sci-Fi to reality
  • Commercial applications of HoloLens, including how this technology will be such a game-changer across many industries
  • Some fun applications
  • How you can easily get on board with HoloLens development... and NO, you don’t need a HoloLens to get started!

With an actual, real, true life, working HoloLens to demonstrate, this presentation is not to be missed.

About the presenter

Stephen Carter is a Senior Software Architect with SSW (based in Melbourne) with a background in business and emergency services.

During his 30 year career, Stephen has ridden the crest of numerous technological tsunamis, from the birth of the internet in the early 90’s, through to the introduction of mobile phones and mobile internet.

Stephen believes we are on the crest of another technological revolution with the release of Microsoft’s HoloLens, and he is champing at the bit to explore the world of mixed reality and to share his learnings with developers, business, and enthusiasts alike.

Introduction to the SharePoint Framework

This session will provide an introduction to the (new) SharePoint Framework - a Page and Part model that enables you to build client-side web parts using modern script development tools and the SharePoint Workbench (new development test surface).
