Microsoft Sway is an application included in the Microsoft 365 suite. It allows you to easily create and share interactive reports, personal stories, presentations, ... Knowing how to design or code a web page is not necessary. Just add your text and images, or relevant content from other sources, and let Microsoft Sway take care of the rest!

Thanks to its integrated design engine, the application is responsible for optimizing your contents and presenting your information in a modern and interactive way. Your presentations are richer and their appearance unique! And if that doesn't suit you, you can always edit and customize each item, and even the entire layout of your page, to perfectly meet your needs.

Once your interactive web page is finalized, Microsoft Sway allows you to share it very easily. You don't need to create an account or download an app. Just send them the link to your Microsoft Sway panel. Of course, you can configure privacy settings for your Sway presentations to give you more control over the content you build and share.
