Edcast Web Widgets

Background

In 2017 I worked on building several web-based applications for Edcast including integrations with Service Now, Microsoft Office, and a custom web application. Over the course of a few months I designed, prototyped, and built these widgets.

Office 365 Integration

Built with React and Microsoft Fabric UI

A unique feature of this widget was the ability to automatically bring up results from the Edcast Knowledge cloud based on the current text selection. Key phrases were extracted using rudimentary client-side natural language proccessing tecniques to preserve the privacy of the document while being able to surface relevant results.

Edcast Knowledge Cloud is available on Microsoft Appsource here.
