Many of you will have been waiting for the official release date of the Windows 10 Creators Update last week and now that it is launched the best place to get an overview of the new features is the official Windows Blog.
You can read the post introducing Creators Update here.
For a visual overview, here is a good video clip:
Some of the features that really stand out for me are:
- 3D Paint – the ease of building out 3D apps in Creators Update is a neat feature with plenty of real world application, especially in education.
- Mixed Reality – the announcement of lower-cost devices that will support mixed reality is exciting as it means more students can develop in this space without the cost of a HoloLens headset.
- Beam Game Broadcasting – for the gamers amongst us, you can now easily stream your games in real time to the web for others to follow along with – no need for third party tools.
- Updates to the Edge Browser, including better tab management and preview options, default support of PDF and eBook reading is now a feature as well.
- Mini View Feature – an “always on top” frame allowing you to keep an eye on a critical app, skype call, or browser window, whilst working in another window at the same time.
- A whole range of new security updates to keep your device safe.
