We are a
technically-focused independent group of professional developers who
concentrate our interests in the Microsoft Visual Studio and the .NET
Framework development
tool set, emphasizing Visual C# and Visual Basic. At our
Presentation Meetings, Labs, and other events we present information on both general and
specific topics regarding these tools and the development of enterprise
level quality applications. In addition, we may include discussions on
other strategic parts of the Microsoft .NET platform. This includes
Clients (Operating Systems, Smart Devices, etc.), Experiences
(Microsoft Office, etc.), XML Web Services (and .NET Services,
etc.), and Servers (Windows Servers and Windows Servers Systems, including
SQL Server, BizTalk Server, etc.).

As peers, we support fellow
members through question and answer sessions, as well as discussions. We discuss both the current and next versions of
our development tools. We network for job and career advancement. Our
members include both experts and novices. Our members include

About Our
Members and Microsoft .NET
|
|
Microsoft .NET includes some of the most significant advancements for developers since
Visual Basic 1.0. Members of our user group are involved in learning about
and exchanging ideas about these enhancements to our development
environment and how to build solutions for our business challenges.
Our group members help provide
each other with additional detailed
information on the .NET platform, including
Visual Studio and the .NET Framework, the .NET languages (emphasizing
Visual C# and Visual Basic), plus the
other parts of
the Microsoft .NET platform and their related applications and technologies. This is an opportunity to learn more about the
current direction of our development on the Microsoft
platforms. This includes information on rapidly building high performance, Internet,
scalable applications,
taking component technology to the next level, moving beyond Web sites to building Web services,
and tying everything together.
These extensive enhancements
to the Visual Studio development tools known as
.NET, no longer include what were called
"language islands". In Visual Studio, the Common
Language Runtime (CLR)
makes development "language-neutral". Now there is much
more that is common than different between the languages. Our group
embraces the .NET Framework development platform as a whole. Our group concentrates on those developers who
choose Visual C# and Visual Basic
as their languages with which to code. The Visual C# examples
are of particular interest to C++ and
Java developers, as well as the broadening nature of the Visual Basic developer.
For more information, see the
.NET Framework
Developer Center
and the
Microsoft Visual
Studio Developer Center.
