Welcome to the new world of .NET Development

While the big story has been .NET Core 3.0 embracing Windows desktop development, upcoming releases from Microsoft have features that improve almost every type of development. Just a few of the huge number of features: .NET Core provides smaller executables via a linker, Visual Studio automates formatting rules, C# lets you avoid null reference exceptions, ASP.NET incorporates Blazor via Razor Components and the .NET ecosystem is expanding with .NET Tools. Kathleen brings together a set of demos across the spectrum of .NET to show how the next chapter of .NET can make your development easier and your applications better.
