VSCode Day and Azure Developers .NET Day are coming!

April is a great month if you are a developer. This month you can attend both VS Code Day 2024 AND Azure Developers .NET Day 2024.

VS Code Day 2024


Start by attending the VS Code Day(in fact it are 2 days) on April 23 and 24.  During VS Code Day you learn everything about the latest and greatest features of Visual Studio Code. Of course, it will be no surprise that there will be a big focus on AI.

Day 1 will be a kind of ‘preshow’ event where Sonny Sanghe will build a LinkedIn clone with Azure and NEXT.JS. It will be a deep dive into using Microsoft Azure, GitHub Copilot, Cosmos DB, and TypeScript to craft robust, scalable web applications.

On Day 2 it is time for the main event where multiple sessions will be hosted. A sneak peak of some of the available sessions:

  • JavaScript developers: Build fast and have fun with VS Code and Azure AI CLI by Natalia Venditto
  • Real World Development with VS Code and C# by Leslie Richardson & Scott Hanselman
  • Beyond the Editor: Tips to get the Most out of GitHub Copilot by Kedasha Kerr
  • LangChain Examples with Azure OpenAI Service + VS Code by Rishab Kumar

Azure Developers .NET Day 2024

Then you can rest and recover for a few days to be ready just in time for the Azure Developers .NET Day on April 30. Expect a day with expert-led sessions that delve into AI advancements, app development efficiencies, cloud-native capabilities, and much more.

A must watch for every Azure Developer where you can discover the latest and greatest Azure features tailored for .NET applications.

Kubernetes–Limit your environmental impact

Reducing the carbon footprint and CO2 emission of our (cloud) workloads, is a responsibility of all of us. If you are running a Kubernetes cluster, have a look at Kube-Green . kube-green is a simple Kubernetes operator that automatically shuts down (some of) your pods when you don't need them. A single pod produces about 11 Kg CO2eq per year( here the calculation). Reason enough to give it a try! Installing kube-green in your cluster The easiest way to install the operator in your cluster is through kubectl. We first need to install a cert-manager: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.14.5/cert-manager.yaml Remark: Wait a minute before you continue as it can take some time before the cert-manager is up & running inside your cluster. Now we can install the kube-green operator: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kube-green/kube-green/releases/latest/download/kube-green.yaml Now in the namespace where we want t

DevToys–A swiss army knife for developers

As a developer there are a lot of small tasks you need to do as part of your coding, debugging and testing activities.  DevToys is an offline windows app that tries to help you with these tasks.
