Microsoft joined the Linux foundation as a Platinum member.
Nobody is live blogging this event?
Here's hoping for VS for Linux 2017.. ;)
Edit: Nevermind, whoa. The Visual Studio Code demo was quite impressive and looks awesome as it is.

Just tuned in - I see they're using the iOS Simulator on Windows. Have they explained how? That's one of the main reasons I use a Mac still.
The Xamarin tools have supported using a remote Mac to run the simulator. Microsoft has an iOS shim library and Objective-C tool chain for porting apps to Windows, but it's very much in preview.
Visual Studio 2017 RC announced by Nat Friedman. (CEO of Xamarin prior to acquisition).
e: kinda surprised its the mobile group who's announcing RC for VS as a whole

Just saw Github CEO Chris Wanstrath deceptively hail Microsoft for having the most outside contributors... from his slides:
- 16,419 Microsoft
- 15,682 Facebook
- 14,059 Docker
- 12,841 Angular (Google)
- 12,140 Google
Makes me wonder whether he's included React in the Facebook numbers...

Yes, it's included. Remember Microsoft has VSCode, Typescript, .Net, Cognitive Toolkit and more on Github. Google would be #1 if Angular was hosted under the Google org.
I remember first seeing these stats in Github's infographic which they released a month or two ago: https://octoverse.github.com/

It has to be right? Why would Github be so inclined to lean towards Microsoft over Facebook.
e: just doesn't follow that they have enough of a vested interest in msft to be deceptive.

What's the deception?

- Microsoft joined the Linux Foundation as a Platinum member
- Microsoft announces Visual Studio 2017
- Microsoft announces Visual Studio for Mac
- Microsoft announces Visual Studio Mobile Center

Please keep updating
I missed part of the key note but it sounds like MSVS for Mac is subscription only?
If that's the case, it sucks :(

No, they mentioned there's a free edition of Visual Studio for Mac they're publishing as well.
Title should have a warning about automatically playing content, although I guess with more “modern” devices background tabs' actions don't matter as much.
At this point in the internet, it's almost a given that any single link you click is going to have an auto-playing video and 5 MB of JavaScript tracking scripts.
Microsoft: For our first demo, let's build a todo app using the MEAN stack on a Mac.

The girl demoing VS 2017 pronounces tuple as 'TWO-pull'. That can't be right, is it?
YMMV, but I've heard both TWO-pull and TUP-pull in academic and professional contexts. From a quick google search it looks like both pronunciations are generall accepted. I prefer TWO-pull myself!

Both 'TWO-pull' and 'TUH-pull' are acceptable.
huh, interesting. Thanks.
Slightly uninteresting: while I now pronounce it as 'TUH-pull', I pronounced it as "TWO-pull" in my younger years because of my background in music, where we use the term 'duple', which people usually pronounce as rhyming with the latter.

Goodies:
Visual Studio 2017 cross-platform support
Visual Studio for Mac
Microsoft joining the Linux Foundation
What I don't like is the way Microsoft integrates and advertises VS Docker integration, VS CI/CD functionality where everything is supposed to run automagically and their attitude that it's OK for devs to be clueless about these technologies and underlying processes but hey, they still should be comfortable using them.
Today's Microsoft motto: "super easy, super simple, yet powerful". I'm not buying it.

Big thanks to GitHub CEO for coming on stage at Connect(); they are such a great partner

Does it mean that Microsoft may release some phone in near future (year? two? three?) with SDK based on Xamarin?
What's the live stream URL?

Linux won a long time ago and now it's doing a victory lap. I'm glad Microsoft joined the team.
