Howdy!<\/p>\n

My name is Garrett Serack<\/a>, I’m not actually part of the Visual C++ team–I actually work as a Senior Software Development Engineer in Microsoft’s Open Source Technology Center, which is part of Windows Server. I have a distinctly different job than most here at Microsoft-I work to get Open Source software running better on Windows and Azure.<\/p>\n

A little over a week ago<\/a>, I released the beta version of the CoApp PowerShell tools<\/a> that let us generate NuGet <\/a>packages for C and C++ libraries.<\/p>\n

Over the next few weeks, I’ll try to explain what the heck goes on under the covers when creating packages for Visual C++, how you can exploit all of the power of Visual Studio in C\/C++ packages and in the process, explore what it would take to manually create packages without the tools.<\/p>\n

Today however, I’m here for a slightly different purpose: We’re having an Open Source “Hackathon”<\/a> here on campus this Friday and Saturday (May 10th and 11th<\/strong>), and I’m offering the opportunity for anyone interested in building C\/C++ packages with NuGet to come on out, learn, code and have a good time. I’ll be on hand all day and into the evening Friday and Saturday hacking away, and helping out anyone who’s interested.<\/p>\n

Also, folks from the the NuGet team itself will be around, so if you have questions for them, you know where they will be!<\/p>\n

We’re gonna have a ton of food<\/strong>, prizes<\/strong>, drinks<\/strong>, and a lot of fun. If you’re into Open Source, and are in the area, I’d love to have you come out, hang around and write some code!<\/p>\n
