    Digging Deeper into the Visual Basic Language Strategy
    AvatarAnthony D. Green [MSFT]February 1, 2017Feb 1, 201702/1/17

    Today Mads made an excellent post about our overall .NET Language Strategy. As I know this will raise a lot of questions in the VB community I wanted to take an entire post on the VB team blog to dive deeper into how VB fits into that strategy and why and what that means in practical terms for us as a community.

    Relaunching the Visual Basic Team Blog
    AvatarAnthony D. Green [MSFT]January 31, 2017Jan 31, 201701/31/17

    Last year we decided to retire this blog and consolidate content on the .NET team blog instead. The thinking at the time was that we weren’t really posting a lot of content to it and that there was so much overlap in content between the VB team blog and the C# FAQ that it would be simpler to just focus on the .NET blog.

    A Journey Through Open Source: The Trials & Triumphs in Roslyn's First Year of Open Source
    AvatarAnthony D. Green [MSFT]April 6, 2015Apr 6, 201504/6/15

    “I am looking for someone to share in an adventure.”
    — Gandalf, The Hobbit, J.R.R. Tolkien

    On April 3, 2014, Anders Hejlsberg set us on our open source journey when he made the .NET Compiler Platform (aka “Roslyn”) source code public live on stage in San Francisco.

    We're moving to GitHub!
    AvatarAnthony D. Green [MSFT]January 10, 2015Jan 10, 201501/10/15

    It’s official. We’re moving to GitHub!
    We are moving the Roslyn OSS code from CodePlex to GitHub. GitHub has a vibrant open source community that we want to actively be a part of and contribute to. We are also going to take this time to modify our pull request process.

    The Rosetta lander Philae wasn’t the only thing in space last week. Our launch of Visual Studio 2015 Preview and our announcement to open source the full .NET server stack were out of this world. After all, it’s not every day that you can say your work trended higher than Kim Kardashian on Twitter.

    .NET Compiler Platform ("Roslyn") for the Rest of Us
    AvatarBeth Massi - MicrosoftJune 24, 2014Jun 24, 201406/24/14

    WOW! It’s been a while — almost exactly 4 years since yours truly, Beth Massi, last posted on the VB Team blog (although it’s cool to see I’m still in the tag cloud ;-)).  I’m honored to be a special guest post today.

    QuickVB Goes Open Source!
    AvatarAnthony D. Green [MSFT]May 2, 2014May 2, 201405/2/14

    Yesterday we published a copy of a fun “Roslyn”-powered retro editor for Visual Basic called QuickVB in honor of the 50th birthday of BASIC. We thought this was a neat application to showcase our love of BASIC but since then we’ve realized that it’s also a great example of how to put the power of the .NET Compiler Platform (“Roslyn”) APIs to use.
