Refactoring and Visual Studio Plugins with Roslyn and Some Startup Discussion

A bit of a mixed bag as we're lucky to have some visitors in town, firstly;

Using Microsoft Roslyn for fun and profit

Roslyn (https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn)is an open-source C# compiler from Microsoft with rich code analysis APIs. We'll take you on a tour of what this means, why it's so great and then some practical things you can do.

• Roslyn makes it much easier to do complex refactoring of your code.

• The new hooks means you can now easily create your own Visual Studio plugins

We also have a bit of a startup theme;

There will be a quick introduction from Darin Walters (https://www.jetabroad.com.au/AboutUs) the CEO of Jetabroad, who will discuss how he got started in travel after previously being the CEO of Blackmore's Vitamins, and Hoyts Cinema Group. We are also lucky to have one of the directors of Jetabroad, Benjamin Chong (https://www.jetabroad.com.au/AboutUs), who will talk about his journey into startups and then investing in startups in Australia and Asia.
