Clarification: The event will be broadcast live only on YouTube
The event will be broadcast live exclusively on YouTube, not on YouTube and Twitch as previously announced. I apologize for any inconvenience.More to watch on-demand
Beyond today’s live broadcast, a full set of on-demand sessions is already available: talks on vcpkg + Copilot CLI, VS Code CMake Tools, MSVC upgrades, C++23/26 status, SPGO, and more. They’re all in the same place as the live stream:
Can’t stay for the whole show? Every featured session will be posted on-demand right after the event, so you won’t miss a thing.
Enjoy the conference — see you in the chat!
