Reading .Net Meetup - 1st Instalment

We are delighted to announce that our first meetup will be held and hosted by Altitude Angel at their Reading offices on Wednesday 27th Feb.

It's going to be a great night - pizza and drinks will be provided and we will have 2 talks.

--------------------
6:15pm -6:30pm- arrivals & registration
6:30pm-7:00pm - networking and refreshments

Talk #1 -

7pm start

Our first talk will be presented by Neil Kidd, Rupert Benbrook, Alexander Dunn and the Altitude Angel team who’ll be introducing and talking about how they use .NET, Azure and DevOps to build their highly scalable services, and how they ensure their quality.

Altitude Angel build services that enable drones to access and navigate our skies safely with other aircraft, that will usher in the future of fully automated aviation.

Talk #2

7:15pm-9pm

Our first speaker will be Jon Skeet. Jon is an famous author, community leader and currently a software engineer working at Google.

The talk will be on C# 8.0 as it's nearly here! The Visual Studio 2019 preview is already available, so if you haven't looked into what's coming in C# 8, now is the perfect time to do so. The most important feature of C# 8 is undoubtedly nullable reference types, but there's plenty more to look forward to as well.

While this talk will be as easy to understand but there'll be a huge amount to cover for the evening so expect it to be a fast pace, with lots of code.

Massive thanks to Altitude Angel for hosting, and to Jon Skeet and Altitude Angel Team for leading the discussions.

We look forward to seeing you all there!!
