Will 2017 be the year of .NET Core? Of course it will! I sat down with Scott Hunter (Director of Program Management for the .NET Platform) on the Eat Sleep Code podcast to talk about all things .NET. Scott shared plans for an exciting year of .NET development including the .NET Core 2 Wave, which includes the .NET Core 2.0 release along with .NET Standard 2.0, adoption strategies, and Visual Studio 2017 tooling.

00:27 EC: Scott is the Director of Program Management for the Dot NET platform. This includes the Dot NET framework, Dot NET core and the managed languages. Scott, I’m glad to have you on the show today.

00:39 SH: Yeah, I’m glad to be here. Looking forward to chatting about Dot NET with you.

00:45 EC: Yeah. It’s a great way to kick off 2017, this being the first show of the year for me, appreciate you making time to do this, and we’ve got a lot of stuff going on in this new year with Dot NET, so this is a great topic.

01:00 SH: Yeah, it’s been… I joined Microsoft in 2007. I was a web developer, I guess is the best way to describe it. So, I was a web developer and I joined in 2007, and joined the ASP.NET team. And that was interesting because, as an external person, I walked in, going, “Hey, this ASP NET thing is gonna be this huge team.” And I remember walking in and I realized, “Oh my God. We only have like 12 developers, and three or four PMs,” and we had support staff as well. So the whole team was under 30 in size when I joined in 2007, and it’s… Externally, I think I was just imagining Microsoft, this huge company, that ASP NET was gonna be this massive team. But it was a great team because even though it was a small team, we got a lot of crap done because we… Everybody was super effective and everybody loved the platform, and I think we did more with a smaller group of folks than people would ever imagine. And a lot of things that we started back then in 2007 are the things that you see in Dot NET all up today. The ASP NET team was one of the first teams… I was gonna say in 2008, we started open sourcing ASP NET MVC for the first time, and then, by 2012, we had actually open-sourced the platform, all of the ASP NET platform by then. And now, look at Dot NET today, and we’ve got Dot NET core, and the entire Dot NET framework is open source out there. So, it was… Some of those things we did back in those days were the seeds that have grown and built a platform today.
