Windows Home has too many annoyances and limitations to be usable for business. My contact should of course have purchased Surface Pro 9 for Business. Certain features require specific hardware … find out more in the FAQ.” Where is this FAQ? It is not linked from the tech specs as far as I can tell. The tech specs say that “At this time, Surface Pro 9 (SQ ® 3/5G) with Windows 11 Home on ARM will not install some games and CAD software, and some third-party drivers or anti-virus software. A contact of mine bought a Surface 9 Pro with the SQ (Arm) chipset for work. This means some applications might not work, and in other areas there is friction. Perfect Windows device? It might be, except that the vast majority of Windows applications are compiled for 圆4 only. Lower energy use than 圆4, longer battery life. It is a hard one though, because when paying attention in video conference you are looking at your video of the speaker, not at the camera, which makes it appear that you are looking elsewhere even though you are not. Good feature or deception? I am not sure, but I err more towards deception. AI makes it appear that you are looking at the camera even if you are not. That aside, it’s a lovely device, great screen, great for video conferencing thanks to the smart camera. Desktop Windows won and it needs a keyboard. That battle was lost with the failure of the tablet personality in Windows 8. Since most people I see using a Surface use it like a laptop, I do wonder about the value of the kickstand design, which harks back to the earliest Surface devices when Microsoft was taking on the iPad. This of course means it costs more than it first appears, because the cheapest keyboard is £129.99 inc VAT. I do not recommend this unless you have very specific tablet-y requirements. My review sample came without a keyboard case. I have had a short time with a loan Surface 9 Pro running Windows on Arm. It is imperfect but it is not full of spam, it is a pleasant site to use and not afflicted by intrusive ads and popups, and it has a ton of good solutions. So thank you to Vishnu S Krish, who for no reward has posted a solution that works, ahead of those busy AWS developers working on the project who have so far ignored it. Rollup recommends a default export if we have only single export.Įxport * as default from ‘amazon-chime-sdk-js’ Update the src/index.js file with the following code and then rebuild the code with npm run bundle. Someone popped up, 2 days after my post, and commented: The source file in the singlejs demo, the one which Rollup bundles, has just one line of JavaScript: I was not optimistic.Īs so often with these kinds of problems, the fix is super simple. It did not attract many views, and at the time of writing it has only been viewed 31 times. Since it made it impossible for me to upgrade my project to the version 3.x of the SDK it was a significant problem. I noted the problem in a GitHub issue on the relevant AWS repository but no response yet. I puzzled over this problem and tried to fix it in various ways, using different versions of rollup and the plugins it uses. Unfortunately the newly generated did not create this global variable, even though it is specified at the name property in. For example, you can create a meeting session and configure the meeting session using window.ChimeSDK. You can access Chime SDK components by component name. In a browser environment, window.ChimeSDK will be available. I guess the committer checked that the demo worked and generated a JavaScript file, but did not actually check that it was usable. A couple of weeks ago, someone got around to updating the demo to use version 3.x of the SDK. This uses rollup.js to bundle the Chime SDK for JavaScript into a single file that can be used in any plain ordinary web page. The solution AWS provides for developers like myself is presented as a demo called singlejs. The SDK though is primarily designed to be used with Node.js and a bundler like Webpack, fitting I guess with the majority of web applications being built today. I am using ASP.NET, it is not an SPA (Single Page Application), and it is not using React. I am using the AWS Chime SDK for JavaScript in a project. Nevertheless, it remains a wonderful resource. StackOverflow is a kind of social media as well as a technology site and all social media sites have their problems. No doubt the complaints have some validity. “It’s been three years since a question I posted to SO wasn’t closed within the first ten minutes of posting it and downvoted for good measure (that’ll teach me to use the site like it’s intended!).” Top of the list is unfriendliness and/or arguing about whether a question is well put rather than, well, answering the question. I hear plenty of complaints about StackOverflow, the developer Q&A site.
