Tips and picks

Tip of the week: Improve the Apps Experience in Your Phone

It’s going to get a lot better in the future, but you can make a small change now to ease some of the pain.

App pick of the week: GitHub

Enterprise pick of the week: Fluid Framework is now officially open sourced

Microsoft said they’d be doing this back in May at Build. As of this week, it’s officially happening and developers are now welcome.

Codename pick of the week: Lots of new Surface codenames

The Walking Cat is back after losing one of his 9 lives. And he brings gifts of lots of Surface codenames. We are finding out what a few of them are:  Zeta (Duo 2 – thanks Zac Bowden); Olympus is 85-inch Surface Hub 2S (thanks Brad Sams); Epsilon was Duo 1.
