20 years since .NET in 2000, and I'm 19 years old, wow :)

Fantastic, thanks. Already creating our first commercial .NET5 API and the experience has been great. So quick to get a working, testable, secure API. Amazing work from you guys, thanks!

[CodingHaribo]

A great thanks to you guys, all the teams and contributors; .NET 5 and everything here looks absolutely amazing.
A fantastic effort. I'm very appreciative. I can see this is the result of great listening from the community.
I can't wait to use so much of this.

Real highlights for me:
- Project Tye (Thank god!)
- iOS development from Windows (Shocking!)
- WebView2
- C# 9 records
- Blazor compatibiliy handler
- Blazor Virtualize Component
- Blazor Pre-render
- Razor component nested CSS
- ClickOnce
- Great winforms/wpf support (good to see this improving)

Fantastic! Loved seeing Scott GU again. It is fantastic to see such an enthusiastic group so passionate about .net

[stephajn]

This video needs to be renamed to "A Tale of Three Scotts" . SO COOL seeing WinForms get first class level support in .NET 5! I'm just curious if it is now hardware accelerated or if GDI+ is still the underpinnings behind it.

[HugRunner]

Wow, so many legends in this video. .NET 5 seems awesome and a big step forward! Currently my projects are on .NET MVC 5, but now it's really time to make a plan to move on to .NET Core and Blazor with .NET 5! Thanks a lot for making it available pretty much all for free and open source!

No Doubt! The matchless Scotts alluring me to .Net!

[liftcarryfetish]

Great release! So happy to see you guys taking Blazor forward! 💙

10:50 Haha Scott Hanselman looks so surprised.

[nestormatias]

Tye is really and amazing new feature and tool thanks Dotnet

[LernMoment]

I really love .NET, VisualStudio and especially all the open source activities from Microsoft. However, comparing many of the .NET Conf videos to those from WWDC I'm really jealous to not being a developer in the Apple ecosystem. Microsoft, could you please make your videos more fun to watch? Especially now that many people do have the time to watch!
Otherwise keep up the good work on .NET!!!

Scott H, unscrew the base of your chair, cover everything in WD40.
Thank me later :D

[stephenyork]

Just use RestEase for client calls to API

[PedroAnselmo]

Great to see .NET 5 coming out, but what a disappointing presentation. Microsoft, I expect more of you guys... what kind of tech showcases were those? I'm sure you can make the .net presentations a bit more appealing to actual professionals

Scott Gu Does not match him just saying. lol
