Not just any keynote

This is not going to be your average keynote. We’ve got Scott Hanselman, Amanda Silver, and a cast of characters from across the product team, telling the story of Visual Studio 2022 with a heap-full of demos and some friendly banter. We’re going to fit all this content into 30 minutes, so watch it on 2x speed at your peril .

What’s new sessions

If you had any questions on whether you should try out Visual Studio 2022, this event has the answer for you. We’ve got eleven sessions from some great presenters focused on what’s new in Visual Studio 2022 and what it can do for you. Whether your building a cutting edge app with the latest technologies of today, or one that’s using the latest technologies of twenty years ago, Visual Studio 2022 has new capabilities for you. These talks will start streaming after the keynote.

More information on all these talks can be found on the event site.

Ask us your questions

Throughout the entire stream, we will have live Q&A on our event site. You’ll be able to ask questions in chat and have someone on the team answer them in real-time! We’ll also have a live Q&A session at the end of the event, 1:00 PM PT (Pacific Time), with some of the key people from the team. So join us and get answers to those questions you’ve burning to ask, and make our experts squirm on live TV .

A worldwide event

People around the world use Visual Studio, and we want every developer to take part in this event. While all the sessions are in English, they will have captions in 14 different languages during the stream and on YouTube after the event. There are also going to be two repeats of the show starting at 8:30 AM CST (China Standard Time), 8:30 AM GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) the following day, 2021/11/9. For those repeats, the team will be on the live Q&A chat and to answer your questions around the clock!

Tips & tricks sessions

My favorite types of sessions are tips & tricks, and the whole team here has been as busy as beavers making them for this event. Each of the tips & tricks sessions are no-nonsense demos of features you can use in Visual Studio 2022. In these talks, you’ll find something new that you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it. There’s not a single PowerPoint slide in sight, not a fluffy talk track, with pretty marketecture slides. Just demos. We’ve got 30 of these talks, covering just about every part of Visual Studio. All these talks will be available on our YouTube channel after the stream is over.

Digital swag

Last, but not least, they’ll also be some Visual Studio 2022 themed digital swag, rumour has it there’s even a 3d model of the Visual Studio logo – which I’m excited to print!

That’s a wrap

I’m proud of all the great content the team has put together for this event. I’ve never seen a conference with so many demos and so much educational content – I’ve learned new things that I can’t live without now, and I’m sure you will as well.

I hope to see you at Visual Studio 2022 Launch Event. As you can see, we’ve got a lot of great content lined up for you. So, join us at https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/launch/ this coming Monday, November 8, at 8:30 AM Pacific Time.

See you next week!
