Exploring .NET’s memory management – a trip down memory lane

The .NET Garbage Collector (GC) is really cool. It helps providing our applications with virtually unlimited memory, so we can focus on writing code instead of manually freeing up memory. But how does .NET manage that memory? What are hidden allocations? Are strings evil? It still matters to understand when and where memory is allocated. In this talk, we’ll go over the base concepts of .NET memory management and explore how .NET helps us and how we can help .NET – making our apps better. Expect profiling, Intermediate Language (IL), ClrMD and more!

Become a productive .NET developer with JetBrains Rider

With .NET Core, an explosion of .NET IDE's happened! There's good old Visual Studio, but also VS Code and JetBrains Rider. In this talk, we'll dive into the latter. We'll explore navigation, automatic inspections and quick fixes, code generation, built-in tooling like version control integration and local history and look at the special scenario's the debugger has to offer, like conditional breakpoints. Come to this session to learn about this new (and fast!) kid on the block and learn plenty of tips & tricks to enhance your development productivity.
