Mark Rendle: Writing Code That Writes Code with Roslyn (virtual event)

Update: Due to the COVID-19 situation, this event will now be a virtual event. We're looking into different platforms, but Zoom is looking the most likely.

Because a big part of what .NET Oxford is all about is the community and everyone getting together and meeting like-minded people - it's important that this doesn't just become the same as watching a non-live YouTube video. For that reason, we're encouraging everyone to turn on webcams and audio where possible, and get involved. Especially before Mark's talk starts, during the break, and at question time. We'll also keep the event going afterwards so people can mingle some more - feel free to bring your own drinks! (sorry, Corriculo can't do home delivery!). Technologies like Zoom, MSTeams, Twitch, etc. make these kinds of remote events not just do-able, but also great fun!

We'll create the Zoom event at about 6.30pm, to allow guests to join, mingle, and play around with the platform. Please aim to turn on webcams and your mic rather than just typing. Ask questions, answer questions, chat, mingle, get involved. I appreciate this might be nerve-wrecking for some, but I've found from moving to working from home fulltime, and using video call technologies such as MSTeams - everyone is so much more 'together' and more involved as soon as webcams and audio are used instead of typing text (we already have Twitter for that). It's amazing how quickly you get used to it too, and it just feels normal. In these strange times we're finding ourselves in, we're going to have to rely upon and get used to remote technologies like this much more for both communication and socialising - so let's have fun whilst we're at it and keep the .NET Oxford community going!

Any questions or concerns, feel free to message me (or even request a Zoom chat! ;))
