At Microsoft Build we announced Fluid Framework, a new framework designed to help every developer build better collaborative applications. We’re excited to say that Fluid Framework is now available as an <\/span>open source project<\/span><\/a>!

Fluid Framework is built from the ground up for very low latency collaboration and synchronization. Developers using Fluid’s distributed data structures can build powerful collaborative applications using familiar programming patterns.

With this technology, the Fluid Framework offers developers:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
