| James Montemagno | Embedding .NET In Every App Written in Any Language | With .NET, .NET Core, and Xamarin we can now take our C# & F# code to just about any platform including iOS, Android, and even Linux. However, what about all of those applications that aren't written in C# or F#? Why have then been neglected the ability of a sharing code across any platform and the luxury of the amazing features of C# and the power of .NET. Well not anymore with the Embeddinator-4000, taking any .NET library and turning it into a native library for java, objective-c, swift, or C/C++. Come find out how you can truly take .NET absolutely everywhere. | Approved | motz@microsoft.com | 5 |
| Luke Foust | Updating App Configuration Without a Deployment | Being able to update your apps configuration without having to re-deploy the app can be a huge advantage.

| Ted Neward | Busy .NET Developer's Guide to CIL Bytecode | In this presentation, we'll examine a concept more recently popularized as "naked objects"--the idea that objects should not be used to present a user interface, but that the user interface should be based around the domain objects themselves. We'll look at the Naked Objects libraries, how they work, and what development using NakedObjects looks and feels like. Careful, though: once you start working with this stuff, you may never want to go back to "traditional" means of writing code ever again. | Approved | ted@tedneward.com | 5 |
| Mikayla Hutchinson | Visual Studio for Mac's Open Source Core | A lightning overview of the architecture of MonoDevelop, the open-source core of Visual Studio for Mac | m.j.hutchinson@gmail.com | ||

This would be mostly the same as the lightning talk I gave last year, except hopefully this time the slides will work! | daplaist at microsoft | ||
| Daniel Plaisted | How to love MSBuild | MSBuild is the build engine for .NET. While it is powerful and flexible, it has at times been verbose, opaque, and complex to work with. It has, however, gotten way better as we’ve adopted it for the .NET Core tooling. In this lightning talk we’ll cover some of the big changes to MSBuild and its project file format, as well as some MSBuild basics that will help you customize the build process or diagnose what is happening in a build. | daplaist at microsoft | ||
| Phillip Carter | .NET Documentation on docs.microsoft.com | Have you seen the new docs for .NET, C#, F#, and Visual Basic? What about the .NET API Reference? If not, this is for you!

| Jon Galloway | Open Source Software Foundations: Not Totally Boring, Actually Super Awesome | Foundations sound horribly boring, but if you love building and using open source software, they're actually really cool. I've been the executive director of the .NET Foundation since February, and one of my most difficult tasks when I was first starting was figuring out how to describe what the .NET Foundation actually is, let alone why anyone should actually care. Foundations can do a lot for the community, and maybe for your open source project. After getting you hyped out of your minds on what software foundations do for you today, we'll talk about where they could possibly go tomorrow. | Approved | jongalloway@gmail.com | 6e |
| Scott McAllister | What soccer teaches us about building successful teams | Building a team of "Rockstars", "Ninjas", or "Gurus" seems to be the ideal for most organizations. The reason behind paying the high salaries and managing the egos is that, in theory, assembling the best talent should guarantee success. Right? While discussing how we build our own successful teams in our organizations we'll look at how various soccer teams were assembled and how successful they were. | Approved | scott.mcallister@smartsheet.com | 6 |
| Adam Dymitruk | Microservices and Event Sourcing as Easy as 123 with Go and Git | Microservices imply a lot about how to build systems. A lot of new concepts bubble up like CAP theorem, messaging patterns, asynchronous processing and daunting topics like CQRS and Event Sourcing. Well it's not hard at all. So why not look at a teaching tool that will show explicitly the moving parts of something like CQRS/ES without having to learn a bunch of frameworks, libraries and patterns in the process. This talk will show how you can debug and step through changes of your application in Git - whether that's on Github, your command line or your favourite Git history browser. | Approved | Adam.Dymitruk@AdaptechSolutions.ca | 6 |

This is a short introduction to the practice, how we set up the environment and how we scaled it. | Approved | chris.lucian at HunterIndustries.com | 6 |
| Erick Thompson | Moving beyond Hello World: A build/deploy pipeline for .NET Core containerized applications | Getting a .NET Core application up and running with Docker is fairly straightforward. However, at some point you need a full build/deploy pipeline. For our V1, we built an end-to-end pipeline using TeamCity, ProGet, Octopus Deploy, AWS ECS, and Terraform. In this talk, I will give a brief overview of our architecture, and talk about the pitfalls encountered, successful projects, and the lessons learned. | Approved | erick.thompson@gmail.com | 6 |
