Give Your .NET Agent a Face: Building an AI Desk Companion with M5Stack
AI agents normally live behind a chat window. What changes when we give one a physical face, a voice, and the ability to react to its environment? In this demo-driven session, we will turn an M5Stack/StackChan robot into a Tamagotchi-style AI desk companion. C++ running on the device controls its display, movement, and sensors, while a .NET 11 backend uses Aspire to orchestrate and observe the services behind the experience. We will connect Microsoft Foundry models for chat and vision, Microsoft Agent Framework for agent behavior, and GitHub Copilot SDK for tool-driven developer scenarios. We will also examine how an agent can use work context safely with WorkIQ, using synthetic or sanitized data rather than exposing private information. Attendees will see the complete architecture, a live end-to-end interaction, Aspire telemetry, and the design decisions required to connect embedded hardware with a modern .NET agent. The project will be accompanied by sample code and a setup guide so developers can build their own companion—or adapt the architecture to other devices.

Protect your PC from AI coding agents while modernising legacy .NET apps
Have you experienced or heard that AI coding agents accidentally removed files or directories, or accessed to resources that you didn't allow? It can happen from time to time. We can't get rid of this behaviour from our AI coding agents. However, we can isolate it from our PC. Throughout this session, I'm going to discuss a couple of options how we can isolated or sandbox AI coding agents from our main PC while performing .NET app modernisation through the modernisation plugins of GitHub Copilot CLI.

What's New in Aspire for .NET Developers
Last year, we told you that Aspire was for every developer - not just .NET developers. We've seen amazing adoption across all different languages, but of course, we have a special place in our heart for .NET. As we added new languages to Aspire, we challenged some of our early .NET-centric assumptions, and discovered a few ways to improve the experience we originally shipped. We're bringing some of these learnings back to the Aspire + .NET workflow, some which you can use today, and some coming very soon! Join Maddy and Damian from the Aspire team to learn how Aspire is better than ever for .NET developers - even if we changed the name 😉 Connect with .NET: Blog: https://aka.ms/dotnet/blog Twitter: https://aka.ms/dotnet/twitter TikTok: https://aka.ms/dotnet/tiktok Mastodon: https://aka.ms/dotnet/mastodon LinkedIn: https://aka.ms/dotnet/linkedin Facebook: https://aka.ms/dotnet/facebook Docs: https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet Forums: https://aka.ms/dotnet/forums 🙋♀️Q&A: https://aka.ms/dotnet-qa 👨🎓Microsoft Learn: https://aka.ms/learndotnet #dotnet
.NET 11 Numerics
.NET 11 expands the numerics toolbox with IEEE 754 decimal floating-point types, `BFloat16`, generic complex numbers, and new generic random-number APIs. It also brings performance and correctness improvements to `System.Numerics.Tensors`. We'll explore how the new types fit into generic math, choose the right precision and range, and see how layout-aware tensor operations improve performance while handling shapes, overlapping memory, and special values consistently. Along the way, we'll cover rounding and practical parsing and formatting improvements. We'll finish with a brief "and more is coming" look at .NET 12 tensor work, clearly distinguishing what's in .NET 11 from what comes next.

How Aspire uses .NET to build an agent-first toolchain for any programming language
.NET is the backbone of a toolchain built for the next generation of software development - Aspire. Join Jose, Aspire’s team lead, and Maddy, Aspire PM, to explore how the Aspire CLI, AppHost, Dashboard, and developer tooling come together to give agents a structured way to understand, run, debug, observe, and deploy distributed applications. We’ll look at how Aspire brings together .NET technologies like Blazor, Native AOT, code generation, and more, to extend the development experience beyond .NET to languages like TypeScript, Python, and even Java. The result is a toolchain where .NET provides the orchestration, developer experience, and runtime foundation while developers and agents can work across the languages they're comfortable with for their apps. Come see how Aspire is using .NET to build a toolchain where developers and agents can work together across any codebase!

.NET Runtime vNext: Memory Safety and Runtime Async
The .NET Runtime is the source of many performance and security improvements that make your apps better. Runtime Async and the updated memory safety model are among the biggest changes we've ever delivered. Runtime Async moves async orchestration and codegen from the Roslyn compiler to the RyuJIT JIT compiler, to enable better performance. Memory safety adds more strict compile-enforcement and improved auditability for unsafe code use. These changes will be critical for the next generation of apps that get written and deployed.

Bringing dotnet run, test, and watch to .NET MAUI
The .NET CLI is central to how developers build and test .NET applications, but mobile development has traditionally required separate tooling and IDE-specific workflows. In .NET 11, `dotnet run`, `dotnet test`, and `dotnet watch` work with .NET MAUI applications on mobile devices and emulators. This talk covers what it took to bring these commands to Android and iOS. We will look at how the CLI selects a device, installs and launches an app, runs tests, captures results, and updates a running application when code changes. We will also examine the challenges that make mobile different from desktop, including platform tooling, application packaging, device communication, and process lifetime. Along the way, we will use the commands with real .NET MAUI projects and discuss how they fit into local development, automated testing, and CI. Attendees will leave knowing how to build simpler, scriptable mobile workflows using the same CLI they already use elsewhere in .NET.

Why WinForms must not change - yet reinvented itself with .NET 11!
Some of the world's most important line-of-business applications are built on WinForms. They contain decades of domain knowledge, countless customer-specific workflows, and—in many cases—millions of lines of proven code. Rewriting them is rarely economical, and breaking their behavioral or designer compatibility is simply not an option. That is why WinForms must not change. But standing still would be just as dangerous. To remain the best platform for evolving these applications, WinForms must also reinvent itself as the migration tool that lets teams modernize without discarding their investment. In .NET 11, that reinvention becomes visible. A new opt-in visual-styles generation gives controls modern metrics and appearance while preserving compatibility by default. Toggle switches, flash-reduced form startup, live Windows visual and accessibility settings, improved focus and text-scale handling, smoother batched UI updates, and new presentation capabilities help applications adopt today's Windows design language and accessibility expectations. The key is not to impose a disruptive new UI model, but to create deliberate conceptual seams inside existing applications: separating generated designer state from application logic, fixed layouts from adaptive layouts, synchronous UI mutation from responsive workflows, and irreplaceable business rules from replaceable presentation and infrastructure. AI makes those seams actionable at a scale that manual modernization could never reach. The designer and runtime must give AI-supported development enough structure to understand a form, preserve its intent, and transform it safely. At the same time, WinForms applications need modern runtime foundations through which developers can add domain-specific copilots, intelligent workflows, and local or connected AI services without rebuilding the entire product. This session explores how .NET 11 turns compatibility from a constraint into a modernization strategy—and how WinForms can preserve decades of customer value while helping business applications become more adaptive, accessible, performant, and ready for the AI era.

ADMT!
Starting January 1, 2027, if a machine rejects your job application in Colorado, you can ask for a human to review it. The law is SB 26-189, Colorado's Automated Decision-Making Technology Act, signed in May 2026. California's privacy regulator has ADMT rules for employers landing on the same date. What a company owes you when ADMT materially influences a hiring, firing, or similar decision: 0/ Notice at the point of interaction that ADMT is in play. 1/ A plain-language description of the machine's role within 30 days of an adverse outcome. 2/ Meaningful human review and reconsideration, on request. The limit: the review is owed when commercially reasonable, and only the Colorado Attorney General enforces it. You cannot sue on your own under this act. Not a ban on AI screening. A human you can reach when it says no. Know your rights. https://leg.colorado.gov/bills/sb26-189
