Microsoft Build Conference, Chicago 2015

Microsoft had a conference today at the Museum of Natural History as part of a series of conferences all around the globe. I thought it was a very interesting conference with a lot of very interesting people.

The company unveiled new technologies which were, at least for me, a refreshing phase for Microsoft. There was the Edge browser (aka the “redemption”), HoloLens and a bunch of other updates. I was particularly intrigued in the JavaScript library, VorlonJS that their team developed. It’s an open source platform-agnostic tool for debugging and testing scripts, a tool that would be really useful for student developers like me.

Overall, I thought the conference was a real success. I hope to come and join the next one!
