SharePoint Online

Session with Mark Kashmann (@mkashman) and Adam Harnetz (@adamharnetz) about whats coming for SharePoint intranets especially in regards to mobile. Here are my session notes: Customer usecase: Delta Delta has 500 content creators; previously it was only posible to do that 80.000 employees, entire user base is 260.000 with externals. Mobile is increasing Replaced legacy technology Delta is now starting to move to O365 SharePoint Online, but starts with OneDrive

The session by Jeff Teper will show us whats coming for SharePoint! Expectations are always highest. Here we go, Jeff enters the stage: SharePoint ecosystem is healthy - we saw that slide already at May, 4th event: And now a very good overview slide of SharePoint and whats it good for: Session Scope In this sessions 4 major areas will be covered: Simple and powerful file sharing Mobile and intelligent Intranet Open & Connected Platform Security, privacy and compliance Let’s start: OneDrive New sync options Access all files Mobile app improvements Better file preview Deeper Office integration OneDrive file activity The last point is Jeff’s favorite - who changed what file recently is really helpful!

In my current project I had the challenge to improve the user experience for some pages without messing too much with the MasterPage (because you shouldn’t, right?). The client explicitly requested components like accordions, responsive tables and more control of the page alignments. So what would be easier to use a mobile first, responsive made by the @twitter guys? Apparently SharePoint Online does not like bootstrap too much - one you add the css files, you will see notable changes.
