From Concept to Clarity, Prototyping Your Ideas with LinqPad

EVENT IS ONLINE AND IN PERSON

LINQPad is one of those tools too few .NET developers know about. Many are under the impression it’s a “database tool” for running LINQ queries and don’t know it does much more.

We’ll be exploring how a C# scripting tool, like LINQPad, can help you capture the essence of an idea with minimal code. We’ll create interactive prototypes quickly and use LINQPad’s visual feedback to guide and inform our development process.

Whether you never use LINQ or whether you’re a backend developer who never touches a front-end, this talk will have something for everyone and I think you’ll leave this talk agreeing LINQPad doesn’t nearly get the attention it deserves!
