@dotNET Please add chapters for long videos, thank you

Out of curiosity, will this get split up into the different sessions? That would be wonderful

[jazzerbyte]

Tip: Don't skip the "Mid-Conference Break" session - it's an interesting discussion of Windows Terminal.

One minor suggestion, maybe spice up the clickonce installer webpage, make it look a bit different than the old 4.8 framework look.

Its so hard to start when it seems to advance way to far for me to catch up.

Whilst I really want a cross platform UI framework from Microsoft, Xamarin has always felt like the worst way of doing this. As a XAML platform it's a mess of weird concepts that work or don't work, and eventually you're going to have to write more platform native code than you wanted too anyway. Meanwhile, platform Uno is sitting out there doing what Microsoft should have done eons ago, rather than doubling down on Xamarin's poor foundations.
