The week in .NET – 2/11/2016
This issue of the Week in .NET is slightly late, and I apologize for that. I was visiting some customers in California for the first half of the week, and they've kept me very busy. I'm writing this post on the plane to Seattle. While I was in LA, I also visited the LADOTNET user group, where I talked about .NET Core, C# 6, and the future of C#. You can find links to my slides in the .NET section below. To read last week's post, see The week in .NET – 2/2/2016. On.NET Last week on On .NET, we had Scott Hunter, who is the new director of Program Management for .NET, in other words my grand-boss. We'll be l...

Porting to .NET Core
.NET Core is getting closer and closer to an RTM release. Only two months ago, we announced the RC release of .NET Core and ASP.NET Core. As part of our validation, we're working with internal as well as external customers to port their code to .NET Core. We received many requests from you asking us how you should go about migrating existing code to .NET Core and how you can continue to target .NET Framework. In this post, I want to provide you with an overview of what porting existing code to .NET Core looks like, what kind of apps are good candidates, what tools we offer to help you port your apps, and how we'...

ASP.NET Community Standup – February 2, 2016
This is the next in a series of blog posts that will cover the topics discussed in the ASP.NET Community Standup. The community standup is a short video-based discussion with some of the leaders of the ASP.NET development teams covering the accomplishments of the team on the new ASP.NET 5 framework over the previous week. Within 30 minutes, Scott Hanselman, Damian Edwards, Jon Galloway and an occasional guest or two discuss new features and ask for feedback on important decisions being made by the ASP.NET development teams. Each week the standup is hosted live on Google Hangouts and the team publishes the re...
The week in .NET – 2/2/2016
To read last week's post, see The week in .NET - 1/25/2016. On.NET On .NET can now be enjoyed on Channel 9, in addition to our YouTube channel. A nice consequence of this, beyond the additional audience, is that we're getting a nice audio podcast feed out of it, which should be useful to all of you who prefer to enjoy the show at times when you can't stare at a screen, for example during your commute. Last week, we had Brian Flannery and Colin Sullivan from Apcera on the show, to talk about NATS, a high performance messaging system with a great .NET client. You can learn more about NATS on the NATS web site....
An Update on ASP.NET Core and .NET Core
Two weeks ago, the ASP.NET team announced during the weekly ASP.NET Community Standup and on our blogs it was decided to rename ASP.NET 5 to ASP.NET Core 1.0. This announcement generated great questions that I'll answer in this post. I'll also update you on our progress with the ASP.NET Core and .NET Core releases. Why Do I Still See ASP.NET 5 in Various Official Places? In the interest of transparency, we decided to disclose the name change before the changes were committed to GitHub. We didn't want to surprise everyone with a flood of renames and changes to projects and documentation. Now that we are ...
