    Folks: if you haven't tried C# and .NET for web development in the last 10 years, there is a pleasant surprise waiting for you. .NET is a fast, productive, open-source, command-line-first ecosystem of programming languages and tools that you can use for free

    Seeing a LOT of folks online who still believe .NET is: Windows only Visual Studio only I’m thinking of running “Minimal March” - all .NET Core and Blazor on stream with vim and command-line tools. Let’s show folks how cool, simple, and fast .NET tooling is

    I'm really tired of folks bashing the .NET and Microsoft developer ecosystem without really looking at what's available today. As a startup you get free copies of Visual Studio, free developer frameworks, build tools, source control, CI/CD and hosting.

    Hey web developer friends.. there are OTHER browsers besides Chrome. My daughter’s school is now requiring Chrome because none of the school’s web applications function properly in other browsers. Not Firefox, not Edge, not Safari. This is not a standard

    Friendly tip for new folks writing code on Windows: I don’t use the Program Files folder, or the Program Data or even the Users folders. I work in c:\dev all of my code is in repositories there. Nothing interferes, it’s a short and easy to spell directory

    I’ve purchased my first Chromebook tonight. All week we’re going to be writing @dotnet code on a sub-$200 laptop without any Microsoft developer tools installed. All open source, all free, and all .NET See ya on @Twitch for the next steps in my Minimal March journey

    Let’s recap: .NET is not a programming language, but an entire ecosystem of tools, libraries, runtimes, frameworks and languages. When you choose to use C#, F# or VB to build with you also get a full suite of tools for every operating system and can be used in the browser

    I can share that I have taken on the role of executive producer for .NET Conf. .NET Conf is the most watched online training event for software developers, and I’m thrilled to be taking the leadership reins. Huge thanks to @BethMassi for setting a standard I hope to reach

    We are in a race to zero length content Folks on YouTube comments want shorter and shorter videos. This two hour class should be 10 minutes Can we get this in 2 minutes as a TikTok? Complex topics take time to explain and discussions with learners are beneficial for everyone
